Sorry if this is not the right place to ask this kind of question, my options on Lemmy are kind of limited.
I play around a lot with experimental types of music and have been using a series of poly-rythm soundscapes that I have created for sleep aid. A couple of friends tried out the stuff I created and said it was amazing for sleep and relaxation.
This gave me the idea for an app that created the poly-rythm soundscapes using simple(ish) formulas that allowed the user to change the scale, scale mode, duration, ambient effects, and poly-meter type to suit their preferences.
I am currently injured and am on disability so have all time and boredom in the world to throw into this project.
My entire programming experience was a single semester of Visual Basic in 2003.
Where would I begin to bring something like this into existence? Thanks in advance.

I would say that your best bet would be to learn React Native. It’s an excellent option for mobile apps and you can reuse what you learn for a lot of other things as well. It’s super popular so you should find no shortage of resources if you get stuck.
Another option is Flutter. I personally don’t like it too much unless I also intend to target desktop (and even then I’d probably use something else) but it’s fairly popular as well so you should be able to find plenty of learning resources.

Wow, I had no idea that React Native basically ran most major programs in existence. Looks like it might be time to sit down and take some online courses/YouTube tutorials for this thing if I really want to get serious with this project.
Thanks!
