Best Technology For Mobile App Development

Mobile App Development

There are various reasons behind building an app. Prior to getting started with mobile app

development, you need to have an understanding about the choices of technology that are available. This will keep you well informed while you discuss

the choices with your app developer. First and foremost you need to decide which app will work

well for you- hybrid, native or web.

Native mobile apps

The first thing that comes to mind when one thinks of apps is native mobile app. The app is created to be ‘native’ or local to a particular platform such as iOS app for apple, Android for Google, etc.

ios

While building iOS for Apple, a developer has to make use of Objective C language. The language is considered as one of the hardest ones to master. For this reason, Apple equips its community of developers with good tools to develop the app. The main tool that is made used by the developers is ‘Xcode’.

Android

Android is built with the computer language Java. As compared to Objective C, Java is more common and is comparatively easier to learn. Thus, finding developers equipped with this technology is not a tough task. The tools available to create Android apps such as ‘Eclipse’ are not as good as ‘Xcode’ but a tool called ‘Android Studio’ is expected to deliver equivalent quality support as that of the tool for Apple.

Hybrid mobile apps

Just like a native app, a hybrid app can also be installed on a device but it operates with the help of web browser. The language HTML5 is used to build these apps. As compared to native apps, hybrid apps are not much smooth, fast or reliable. Since building apps with HTML5 eliminates the need to create native apps for different platforms, the language is seen to have a great potential.
