XF 2.3 Can Xenforo be installed inside a App?

[pilot823]

I've asked this question before but let me try again.

Were building a App in order to continue growing with are website. After many year we realize that having a forum will not guarantee growth into the future when competing with Social Media. So were coverting over everything inside a APP.

The one thing we really wanted, was to be able to inbed xenforo forum into are new app and not have it outside the APP.

Everything we have is all being installed into a APP and we don't want to leave the xenforo forum software behind as we like Xenforo. But we have other choices for forum software if needed. Since we no that forums can no longer compete and grow again social media as a Stand alone platform. We've have had a forum since 1996, so i feel we have a good gauge on the future of users especially since we have a specialized field.

Hopfully someone can help us out. Thanks

You don't need to. Follow the PWA setup within ACP. Once done any user can run xenforo in a app by saving to the desktop.

How about people on mobile phones and tablets since 90% of are User use that instead of a desktop

I should have also mentioned phone. It does the same there.

PWA are mobile first responsive web apps that are already native supported by XenForo.

You seem to be asking if you can use XF as a headless backend, which you could to some extent with the current REST and OAuth features, but your developer would have to research and see what is possible.
