I’m developing an Android app, and due to time circumstances, I started developing the project in PHP, together with a MySQL backend. is it possible to package the project folder as a APK where it could be opened within the tablet?
I understand Android applications are meant to be written in Java, and I have checked out:
But it doesn’t answer if it was possible to package a complete PHP project as an APK.
No. Since PHP is a server side language you would have to run a webserver and a MySQL server on the device (like @deceze said).
Since you have already started development in PHP my recommendation would be to develop a web based application and have your users access it from a very lightweight client on the Android device. You could use something like PhoneGap or AppCelerator to develop a front end client app since I’m guessing your talents lie in web development 🙂
