Framework7 & Cordova

This is the stack I've run in production since 2020 — one codebase, both stores, tied to PHP backends that actually match the mobile apps.

Why I still use it

For delivery and marketplace products you often need admin, merchant, and user apps that share logic. Framework7 gives you a solid mobile UI; Cordova gets it into the stores without maintaining two native codebases.

When the backend is PHP and the team is small, it's a practical setup — and I've published plenty of releases with it.

Backend in the same picture

I design process flows and API shapes together with the mobile screens. Orders, trips, payouts — if the app and server disagree, users notice fast. I'd rather fix that in planning than in a hotfix at midnight.

React, React Native, and what's next

I'm adding React and React Native where projects call for it, with the same review habits. Happy to discuss greenfield vs staying on Cordova — I'll tell you if I'd pick something else for your case.

FAQ

Questions I get asked

Is Framework7 still a good choice in 2026?

For teams on PHP backends or apps already in Cordova, often yes. For brand-new native-first products, we should talk about React Native or native — I'll be upfront about tradeoffs.

Can you take over an existing Cordova app?

Maintenance, features, store updates, backend fixes — that's normal work for me. Send the repo state and store links and we'll see.

What's your main stack?

Day to day it's Framework7, Cordova, PHP, and MySQL — mobile, backend, and getting apps through Google Play and the App Store. I'm building React, React Native, and Next.js through actual projects (this portfolio included). I'll pick up new tools when there's a clear workflow and time to review before release.

How do you use AI without breaking production?

AI helps me draft UI, boilerplate, and scaffolding. It doesn't get the final say. I still walk through security, logic, integrations, and store requirements myself — same as I have for years of releases on live platforms. Fast drafts, careful ship.

Do you work with teams outside the Philippines?

Yes. I'm based in the Philippines and work with local teams and remote clients. English is fine, and I'm used to coordinating across time zones on production teams and direct collaboration.
