I am new to web design and mobile app development but I have been developing a mobile app for the past year (it is a social media/forum type app)

I now want to connect a website to the mobile app so that whatever a user does on either one it will be reflected in the other.

How do I go about doing this?

First you need to code the backend which is the core of your project. Next you build the front-end website and the app .
Wordpress is usually used for this purpose, he has a strong backed source ,and he offers a good front end. For the app you can handle all the ui through xml rpc or just load your website in a simple webview.

First, what technology are you using?
then it would be done by the core code from the both backend and frontend of the website

Depends on which platform or framework you are using.
To connect a website and a mobile app so that user actions sync between the two, one way of doing that is:
-- Create a server-side application that acts as a bridge between the website and mobile app. This server will handle data synchronization and communication.

If you already have the app, then it has to use some sort of API and backend. Nowadays there are web frameworks like React, Angular or Vue. You can use one of them to build the web version of your app quickly, this also can use the same API.
In which technology do you build the app and how is your backend/API written?
