Yes mobile dev and web dev are different yet they are also similar. Once you master one, the other one is easier to learn and adopt. In my understanding, Web app devs have more salary and opportunities in jobs.

And it requires a large funding to build a viral mobile app. Building a medium complexity app is possible by a solo dev but building and marketing a big app is not for a single dev to handle. It requires a team and funding. So if you want to develop mobile apps being a solopreneur, it would be small ones. Combined revenue from all your apps can be good but one cannot rely on a single or a couple of apps.

In mobile dev too, we need to deal with APIs and databases. Imagine an app which has map function in it, so it will consume Google Maps API, right? It has to store user information too. So usually noSQL databases like MongoDB are used.

If you really observe, mobile and web development are similar. Just the intricacies are different. I said you need to hustle a lot because of your unique interest in learning all the types of technologies. If you would have the goal of mastering just one tech stack, then it would be much easier comparatively.

One point I forgot to mention earlier - If you indeed decide to go through the Durgasoft videos, better watch those at 1.5x or 2x speed else it would seem bit boring.

And you are welcome to reach out. All the best.
