You can get a really good answer by learning how to build web apps and mobile apps. Without a better understanding of them it is likely quite difficult for anyone to guide you.

I think for forum the best is to start with a website and when the forum gets popular and has a lot of daily users, you can also create a mobile app for it.

With website the main benefit you get is SEO. Each individual forum posts can be indexed in google and that can bring users organically to the forum.

I personally prefer a web app for forums because it offers a more spacious layout and better multitasking options, especially on a desktop. That said, a mobile app is great for quick access and notifications on the go. Ideally, having both options ensures users can engage based on their preferences and convenience. For your forum, a responsive web app might be a good starting point!
