Why we built these
Building an app is full of decisions you have to make before you write a line of code: what it’ll cost, what to call it, how anyone will find it. Most of the answers are locked behind email walls or sales calls. They shouldn’t be. These tools give you straight answers for free — no signup, no drip campaign.
They’re also a window into how we think at ShipNative: the fastest path from an app idea to a real, ownable iOS and Android app. When you’re done estimating and naming, you can describe your app and watch a real React Native build appear in a live preview.
