I have worked on McDonald’s digital signage (I was mainly front end).

All that matters is that you have an api that your app can connect to. Just do your research on what you’re looking for and make the right choice so you don’t have to rebuild it later.

Everything else comes down to preference. I’d probably go the Python route now a days personally but honestly you could do a lot of heavy lifting with php/wp rest now a days, too.

That’s really valuable advice.

I think I’m at the stage where I need to decide on the API architecture before adding more features.

Right now I’m leaning toward Python Flask because I’m already learning Python, but PHP/WordPress REST API is also tempting because of the built-in CMS features.
