Expo is a development platform for building React Native apps for iOS, Android, and web from one JavaScript/TypeScript codebase. Cloud builds, over-the-air updates, and a managed workflow skip most native configuration headaches. Free tier covers most small-team needs. Production plan at $99/month per member.
CatDoes is best for small business owners, founders, and non-technical people who want to build a mobile app or website without hiring a developer. You describe what you want in plain words, and an AI agent writes the code, runs tests, and fixes errors on its own. It can build iOS apps, Android apps, and websites — all with a backend (database, login, storage) included. You keep full ownership of your code and can export it or connect your GitHub account anytime.
