NativePHP for iOS

Delicious native apps with Laravel

NativePHP for iOS launched on February 5, 2025 with 68 votes, #439 of 5,999 launches that month and more than 90% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 1 year on.

What it does

NativePHP has changed the game for how to build installable applications on desktop platforms across macOS, Windows, and Linux. And now we're coming for mobile! NativePHP for iOS let's you build truly native apps with Laravel, running entirely on-device.

That's right! Free and fully Open Source

Not a limited trial. Not a freemium tier. The core framework and essential plugins - everything you need to build and ship a native mobile app with Laravel - now costs absolutely nothing . Starting with v3, the entire Laravel community (and beyond) can build native iOS and Android apps without paying a cent. With v3, almost every piece of native functionality has moved from the monolithic core of previous versions to a modular plugin system. We'd been thinking about and working on ways to make NativePHP for Mobile more extensible for many months. We wanted to make it so that you can build anything you need with just a little Swift, Kotlin and PHP. With v3 this is now possible. Each plugin…from nativephp.com

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

    I was at FB/Meta from late 2013 to early 2023, mostly working in the compiler/runtime spaces. I got hit in the spring 2023 layoff wave. I immediately started making games in my newfound free time (a lifelong interest, and I even worked in AA(A?) back ca. ~2000), and in October 2023 I stumbled upon the idea of a roguelike pachinko/plinko game inspired by Luck Be A Landlord. Things snowballed quickly, I started talking to publishers, then worked like crazy through all of 2024, almost the hardest I've ever worked in my career, and launched the game in December 2024. It's sold…

  • i wanted to change the habit of reaching for my phone in the morning and doomscrolling away an hour so i built an app to help me. now i have to literally touch grass before accessing my most distracting apps the app is built in swiftui, uses the screen time apis provided by apple and google vision to recognise grass or not i'd love to get your thoughts on the concept.
