Asset folder and files in an exported project
As can be seen above, the project is ready to run and after this step, development takes place out of Monday Hero. With already exported the project UI as an Xcode project or Android Studio project, and it is ready for development. Now it is time to work on the backend services and configurations as planned. Happy coding!
