Learning web development sets you up perfectly for mobile development because you already have essential developer skills like using a code editor, the command line, GitHub etc. Web development is also more challenging as you normally work with multiple coding languages. With mobile development, you're only using one programming language. I do both web and mobile, so I recommend you start off with web then take on mobile development later. You'll be better off than a non-programmer who just tries to jump into building apps right away. Besides, most mobile apps uses databases and web services, so your knowledge as a web developer will only make it easier. Stay strong!
iOS developer here. I agree that whichever platform you prefer and are therefore motivated to learn is the one you should choose. My sense is that absolute number of Web jobs available is bigger than the number of mobile jobs available, likely because more companies need websites than need mobile apps. But there are _plenty_ of mobile jobs, so I wouldn’t use that as a factor.
@@ShredzZ I have not freelanced, but I know iOS developers who do and prefer it. My sense is that there are plenty of freelance iOS gigs out there, though many if not most require experience.
I will start training in web development as well as mobile development (Android + IOS) because I want to learn how to create mobile applications. I hope it won't be too difficult and that I'll get there!
I appreciate this video, Tiff. I've been struggling with this question myself for quite a while now, stuck in "tutorial hell." You comments helped me to solidify my thinking and hopefully clarify my path! Thanks again!
Another point towards web. Compliance. While large enterprises are not “sexy” … they are the easiest to find stable consistent job stability. If that matters … web is critical as every organization over a certain size has to have a federally ADA compliant web presence. If you skip that - you risk removing this massive opportunity from prospects.
I believe hybrid development is fast growing and lots of companies are gradually adopting it. Native development is still well established, but hybrid is still something to consider.
Learn web first, it's easier. Then specialize in mobile. My mobile development agency is where I make my money. Although I know back end cloud micro services very well too and also am a certified DBA.
Web development is also niche, but its wider niche that even can include mobile development using JS for example. for me, as experienced developer, android development is easier, just because I hate forntend and JavaScript. I feel more comfortable developing with C++ (and JAVA) than JS, CSS, HTML.
I'm going to start on mobile dev. I've wanted to start coding for a long time on this time I came up with a couple of good ideas and I know these were good because someone else created popular apps. So wish me luck, I've been struggling with mental wellness so I could use some positivity like the one I get from your videos.
@@shokhjakhonrakhmatullaev7115 When I started I was using React Native because I was using React for web dev before. Now, I'm learning Kotlin. In my opinion, using Kotlin is easier because Andriod Studio is easy to use.

Mmm... I'm leaning more towards hybrid app dev as mobile browsers are becoming more powerful giving you access to device hardware which was mostly only available through wrapper frameworks or going native. Nice thing then is that you could then also cater for both desktop/web version (okay limited device integration) and having a mobile friendly version giving the end user a seamless experience...
This is very helpful for me to decide which is better web development or mobile development . Really genuine videos , informative . Lot of thank to Tiff in tech . Keep grow and support from me . I Respect you as a Mentor , expert , master in tech field .
I've been a web developer (Full-stack) for 10 years+ now, and if I were just starting my career, I would personally pick becoming an iOS dev today. I love web development, but there's so many technologies involved in web development, especially with a lot of available frameworks to choose from (JS frameworks, back-end frameworks, server upkeep, etc.) sometimes it's overwhelming, even for experienced devs. In the mobile dev world, in my opinion has a fewer tech to master. Apple's SDK for example has almost everything you need in one programming language (Swift). If you happen to pull 3rd party packages, it's far fewer compared to the web dev side.
that's good advice. But what's the future of app development with the rise of CHatGPT and other AI? Is there any point learning app dev now? Would appreciate your thoughts. Thanks
@@icetmzz9074 Yes you need to know some backend dev stuff, it's actually part of the entire "mobile development" term in my opinion. You can choose to just focus on front-end (UI/UX) where other people in your team can handle the back-end (databases/server requests) for you.
@@wm5000 In my opinion, app development (web/mobile) is not going anywhere. ChatGPT and other AI are still not capable of creating production-ready apps, you can utilize AI to find bugs, or help you write better code but still (at the moment) AI can't replace real humans to create production-ready, complex apps. Maybe in the far future, but not yet.
@GlennRaya this is exactly what I think. I feel SO overwhelmed by web development that I decided to focus on native android development, after hybrid mobile development and later I'll go to IOS native development. I also know web dev, but every semester there is something more to pick from web dev and a new project with a totally new "and better" technology that I'm overwhelmed. .
Both with ionic/angular or flutter. I started with angular and directly ionic and soon flutter. But i originally started with c# in Unity (VR/XR) and learned Java basics at university
Personally, I found swift easier to learn having came from a C background (swift seems to share a lot of similarities with Objective C, and therefore, C) but your mileage may vary
Oh.. I'm not alone. I have 2+ years of experience. I can do both of them, and I can do a desktop app written in Java. I still can't make a decision. Even that I feel like a newbie.
Web development is horrendous because of the absurd architecture, backward compatibility and raping of HTML, which was never intended for writing CRUD apps. Decades later new frameworks and languages are still mushrooming.

Passion and drive can make you learn and master anything. People under estimate their abilities to discover their highest potential. Its not about what is easier. But what skills will challenge me the most and give me the maximum chance to grow.
Suuuuuper helpful and inspiring, thank you! I just started learning Front End, and was wondering if I should switch to Mobile, so your vid helped answer a lot of questions, and helped me clarify my path. Subscribed!
I’d love to add that if you choose web development you can still do mobile development for both iOS and Android through things like electron and fluttr. They are frameworks designed to bridge the gap between web app and mobile app. There’s always endless possibilities which is why I love tech so much!

If you're going to do mobile, and are trying to decide whether to learn iPhone or Android, remember this: Things change. However, both platforms are generally similar, and while it's not trivially easy, you can learn enough to be good at doing both. But as Tiff mentioned, practice makes perfect.

Web
Good call on focusing on your interest. Then you'll be inspired to be better at it, which makes you more in demand, anyway.

Most companies just want to have a website so I think the demand for a web developer would be more compared to a mobile developer.
Ruby and PHP are the COBOL of web programming. They are still around, but new stuff is being made with Python and JS.
Hola Tiff In Tech no fui el primer comentario¡¡ >:3 , undefined, que tengo que hacer para que me apoyes? :3,

iOS is so much easier and I feel like there’s a lot Leeds you have to learn
What do you think about React Native and cross-platform app development?
I think it is great!!
Thank you for this video, very helpful
Web development is easy until you attempt to build responsive pages.
Mobile is more niche but the supple of developers is also lower.
I am confused between flutter and native java language can someone explain the different
Pick web development, less stress (just don't pick too many frameworks lol). Far too many job openings for web dev than mobile dev.
