Study Notes

  • An API (Application Programming Interface) enables different software applications to communicate through a set of rules, protocols, and tools.
  • Native apps are developed for specific platforms like iOS or Android using platform-specific languages.
  • Web apps are websites designed for access on mobile devices, without requiring download or installation.
  • Cross-platform apps use tools and technologies for deployment across multiple platforms like iOS and Android.
  • iOS is a closed-source mobile operating system by Apple, exclusively for iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch devices.
  • An IDE (Integrated Development Environment) is a software application with a comprehensive development environment, with a code editor and debugging tools.
  • UI/UX Design Tools are specialized software applications that help designers create, modify, and explore user interfaces (UI) and user experiences (UX).
  • The backend of an application is responsible for processing data, managing databases, and handling security.
  • Mobile Development involves creating software intended to run on mobile devices.
  • Hybrid apps blend native and web elements, using web technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) wrapped in a native app container.
  • Progressive web apps are web apps designed to resemble native apps, accessed through a browser, and installable on devices.
