I'd like to convert these to a very simple app to improve searching, navigating, and updating the content.
Background: I am an ex-software developer, but mostly backend/scientific-computing and have never built an app so I'm unfamiliar with the territory.
What framework do you suggest for creating an iOS/Android app of what is essentially a reference book with search (i.e. table of contents, chapters, sections with text and images)? My development environment is linux, currently. I'm looking into frameworks such as flutter and react native.
I think my ideally the handbook content would be stored in a public repository, perhaps as markdown, so that it can easily accept contributions / issues. Separate code bases would turn the content into an app, PDF document, or website possibly.
Thanks!
hackmd.io provides a nice web interface you might use to flesh out the concept and see if markdown works out (I'm not affiliated). Good plan, good luck.
