Trying to create a mobile app from my tg database. Will appreciate any tips/references
Hi @Yjtan,
we are not a database that can run on mobile devices. The easiest way would be to use REST API which would be consumed by your mobile app - that way your app would work as a “web browser wrapper”.
You should also think about separating your database layer from your mobile layer using web proxy or some microservices setup. That way a web proxy will take care about your mobile users and on other side protect your database. If you need to store data locally (cache), you can use one of the mobile databases technologies like SQLite, Couchbase mobile, ForestDB.
Where to start? I would suggest with reading GSQL 101 - https://docs.tigergraph.com/start and our REST API tutorial: https://docs.tigergraph.com/dev/restpp-api
Best,

@Yjtan a few people have built mobile applications using TigerGraph. Here is a package that can help you get started with integrating TigerGraph with Flutter… BUT YOU MUST MODIFY THIS PACKAGE because there are some security flaws that I see when looking at the package. Hopefully, this will spark some ideas of where to start. https://pub.dev/packages/tiger_graph
