Why TypeScript for this
Over-the-air updates are underrated. Pushing a fix without a store review turns a two-day incident into an afternoon, and it is a genuine operational advantage over fully native builds.
TypeScript is strongest at one language across client and server, with types catching integration errors at build time. For react native development 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 build the smallest thing that proves the case, put it in front of real users, and expand only what earns its keep.
Six weeks to something running in production, not six quarters to a strategy document.

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
- TypeScript codebase shared with your web application where sensible
- Expo or bare workflow chosen on your actual native requirements
- Over-the-air updates for fixes that do not need a store review
- Native modules where platform capability requires them
- Both store submissions and release management
- Shared design system across web and mobile
Questions
Can we share code with our website?
Business logic, types, validation and API clients, yes, commonly a substantial share. UI components generally do not transfer directly, and pretending otherwise leads to compromises on both platforms.
Expo or bare?
Expo unless you need native modules it does not support. The managed workflow removes a lot of build and release pain, and the escape hatch exists if you need it later.
Is performance good enough?
For the overwhelming majority of business apps, yes. Graphics-intensive or heavily animated interfaces are where native or Flutter pull ahead.
Alternatives for react native development
Same capability, different stack. Each page states its own trade-off.
