Study Notes
Mobile Application Development Fundamentals
- Mobile Application Development involves developing applications for mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets, and smart TVs.
Mobile Platforms
- Android is a mobile operating system developed by Google, based on a modified version of the Linux kernel and other open source software.
- Android is the most popular mobile operating system, founded by Rich Miner, Nick Sears, Chris White, and Andy Rubin.
- iOS is a mobile operating system created and developed by Apple Inc., exclusively designed for Apple hardware.
- iOS is the second most popular mobile operating system globally after Android.
Mobile Application Types
- Native Mobile Application: developed using platform-specific development tools, individually for each mobile operating system.
- Hybrid Apps: combine elements of native and web applications.
- Cross-platform Web Apps: can be used on multiple mobile platforms.
Cross-platform Mobile Application Development
- Refers to the development of mobile apps that can be used on multiple mobile platforms.
- Development Environments: Apache Cordova, PhoneGap, Xamarine, Ionic Framework, React Native, and Jasonette.
- Advantages: code reuse, controls cost, quicker development time, easier implementation, sameness and uniformity.
- Disadvantages: loss of flexibility, problems in platform integration, diversity in user interaction, poor user experience, and difficulty in satisfying all users.
App Type Comparison
- Native: full access to device's/OS's features, powerful performance, native UI, efficient app running, high-quality functionality and UX, access to all native APIs and platform-specific functionality.
- Hybrid: lower development cost, different OS support, code reuse, cost-effective development, but slower performance, limited access to OS features, and poor interaction with other native apps.
Fundamentals of Mobile Application Development
- Choose a Development Approach: consider feasibility, Android, iOS, and Windows, and their evolving platforms.
- Clear Recognition of Requirements: define and set goals, analyze the product and target audience, and develop apps that hit the precise pain point.
- Dynamic Functionalities: interactive functionalities such as GPS, transactions, messages, responsiveness, sensors, and audio/video attract users.
- Security and Speed Efficiency: ensure security, reliability, and authenticity, and respond instantly to customer requests.
- Testing Quality and Consistency: test on different devices, maintain consistency, and ensure the app is ready to deploy.
- Introduce a Pilot Version: launch a well-tested, mature, and fully functional app.
