Hey guys, Im going to start working on a mobile application fro my client, for which im gonna use flutter for frontend and node,express for backenda and im using typescript, the thing is i wanna deploy my frontend on playstore and backend somewhere, the thing is when creating a appwrite project, should i go with "Web" or "API KEY"

TL;DR
Developers wondering whether to use "Web" or "API Key" when creating an Appwrite project for a mobile app using Flutter frontend and Node.js/Express backend. They are looking to deploy the frontend on Play Store and backend elsewhere. Focus on how to set up the Appwrite project effectively, considering future development options for a web frontend.

why do you need the node/express backend?

because we could maybe build a web frontedn too, for which we don't want to build a backend from scratch, if we can implement it now it can be built later on right?

Why have another backend when you already have Appwrite?
