Why TypeScript for this
A regular release cadence beats emergency-only updates. Small, frequent changes are easier to test, easier to roll back and far less likely to break something else.
TypeScript is strongest at one language across client and server, with types catching integration errors at build time. For app maintenance & support that matters because the failure modes of this kind of system tend to cluster exactly there.
The honest trade-off: the ML ecosystem is in Python, so heavy model work lives there. We say that up front because a stack chosen for fashion rather than fit becomes someone's migration project two years later. We start from the constraint, not the capability, what the system must never do, who signs off, and what happens when it is wrong.
You own the code, the models where they are open-weight, and the documentation to run it without us.

We are not a reseller for TypeScript and hold no commission on this choice. Where a different option fits your workload better, the recommendation will say so. That is the entire value of asking us.
What is included
- OS version testing ahead of each major Android and iOS release
- SDK and dependency upgrades before they become forced
- Store policy compliance monitoring and required changes
- Crash triage with prioritisation by user impact
- Regular release cadence rather than emergency-only updates
- A named contact, not a ticket queue
Questions
What typically needs updating?
OS compatibility twice a year, SDK and dependency upgrades, store policy changes, and whatever real users surface that testing missed. Most of it is predictable and schedulable.
What if we do nothing?
The app degrades and eventually gets pulled. Missing a required target-SDK deadline results in removal from the store, which is not recoverable quickly.
Do you maintain apps you did not build?
Yes, after a code and dependency audit. We need to see what we would be taking responsibility for, and sometimes that audit changes the advice.
Alternatives for app maintenance & support
Same capability, different stack. Each page states its own trade-off.
Building with TypeScript?
Bring us the workload and we will tell you whether this is the right stack for it.
