{{notif_text}}
Hi,
I am creating an android application in which i have a card view in which my post is visible and below the post it has two textviews which is showing total no of comments and and likes. Now what i want to do is to update my total likes and comments whenever a new like or comment will be posted by some other users. In backend i am using php and mysql. I want to create a realtime app which will update the user interface whenever a new content is available same like firebase . As firebase displays the latest update as soon as the user has changed some value in the database and the same value gets reflected in the user interface.
Since, you already have mysql as your db and a server, you can use Socket.io to send new data to client whenever a new like/comment happens.
At CutShort we use Socket.io to send data to active clients in realtime like credit balance update, new message in conversations or new notifications in channels.
Hope that helps :)
PS: Upvote if you think this helped. Also you can comment given you have further questions.
