I'd like to develop apps for the Google store (Android) and/or the Apple store (iOS). What is the best way to do that?

I'm aware of [GitHub - jeapostrophe/racket-android: deploying Racket on Android](https://github.com/jeapostrophe/racket-android) and some options for converting Racket to Java, etc. I'm hoping someone has experience doing this / has researched the options more thoroughly than I / is aware of things I'm not.

Any advice?
