A low-quality app can cost a business more than it can ever afford. On the other side, a well-developed app generates revenue for businesses. We see and use different mobile apps that are not only built, but established and set market trends, whether it’s a shopping store, fitness app, or social media platform.
Impekt offers a results-driven app that features a better experience, interactive design, and high speed. That’s only possible with the right approach and resources towards mobile app development. Let’s discuss them in detail to get the right way of the app development process.
Approaches
We use different methods to develop the exact product that matches your business approach. The goal is to support the business cause and growth through the most suitable solution. These approaches are discussed below:
Native
In the Native approach, applications are developed using the device’s own system, its languages, and tools. That’s why they are specific to each type of device; iOS Native apps don’t function in Android and vice versa. They are:
- Efficient and speedy due to the candid interaction and familiarity with the system
- Convenient and in accordance with all aspects of the device, giving a smooth user experience
- Seamlessly connected to all device features, such as the camera and GPS
Cross-platform apps
These applications are developed from a codebase that is functional for all operating systems. For example, Facebook and Alibaba-like apps require a one-time build-up for both systems: iOS and Android. They feature:
- Device-based customization, attaining a uniform look and user experience throughout the platforms
- Easy upgradation, as updates are only applied to the single codebase
- Limited access to the device features, such as the camera, due to less interaction with the system
Resources
To go with the method, different technologies are applied to develop mobile applications. A set of resources (languages and frameworks) is available as a development technology. A programming language is essential for writing software logic and building a framework.
The following are the examples we use to develop code, build apps, and compile them for different devices.
- Swift
- Kotlin
- React Native
- Flutter
Swift
For iOS app development, we use Swift, as it is one of the proficient and modern coding languages. Its neat syntax, rapidity, and secure features make it a top choice for the app and its development.
We use this iOS native language to serve these categories:
- App development: As a proficient codebase, Swift is widely used to develop native applications for iPad and iPhone. LinkedIn and Facebook are examples.
- Backend development: Besides the app front layout, it is also useful in back-end build-up, including the server-side.
- Education: This tool is also used to develop educational apps to learn coding easily and accessibly. These special apps include Swift Playgrounds.
- Cross-platform development: It’s an advancement in the Swift language, enabling it to serve cross-platform features. Now, it is accessible for both iOS and Android.
Kotlin
For Android app development, we use Kotlin, the primary as well as modern programming language. For its technical efficiencies and consistent updates, it is a preferred native language by many.
We use Kotlin to perform the following tasks:
- App development: Due to the language’s built-in feature, developers have to do less coding, and they can keep their focus on major tasks. Our developers find this automatic and relatively error-free system more trustworthy for native applications.
- Cross-platform development: It can be used with other languages for its easy integration. We take similar applications and modify them with the use of Kotlin.
React Native
React Native is a framework that allows developers to write a single codebase and deploy it to multiple platforms, such as iOS and Android. The languages it uses are React and JavaScript. Due to the high performance and compatibility with native codes, it is commonly adopted by experts.
For mobile app development, we take the following advantages of React Native:
- Cross-platform: Familiarity with the language minimizes the chances of error, hence experts find it easy and proficient for the app development process.
- Native Adjustment: The framework has native components that can be used in the development process. They help the codebase to efficiently link with the system, giving users a native experience.
Flutter
Flutter is a software development kit consisting of tools, code samples, documentation, and frameworks. This is based on the Dart language and provides a cross-platform solution for mobile app development. For their fast pace and high performance, these are widely used by developers.
At Impekt, Flatter is preferred for the following uses and characteristics:
- Cross-platform: Along with a single codebase facility, its system has features that make it fast. It enables developers to build applications for various platforms, such as iOS and Android.
- User interface: As it is an open-source UI library that allows customization, developers use it for user-based and tailored designs.
- Native adjustment: It is integrated and connected with the system efficiently enough that it keeps the animations and user experience the same as the native app.
Features
We select and utilize the approaches and resources that make the development process highly proficient, cost-effective, and less time-consuming. With the right choices, we build mobile applications that possess:
User interface: Flutter and React Native frameworks develop apps with intuitive, aesthetic, and custom user interfaces.
Time-efficiency: Cross-platform provides a single codebase for multiple devices. It makes the process efficient and faster.
Performance & safety: Using Native languages with safety checks like Swift and Kotlin, we provide safe and high-performing mobile apps.
Cost-efficiency: Single codebases require less labour and time for programming and deployment. It gives us budget-friendly apps.
User experience: These resources easily integrate into the system or its code. That interaction gives a smooth user experience in the app.
Develop & customize your app
Whether it’s iOS or Android, an online shop or a gaming app, we come up with all possible solutions. Our selective approaches, appropriate resources, and skilled developers offer you a custom mobile app development for your business idea. From selecting approaches to coding to deployment and upgrade, we cover you all.
Mobile app development is neither just about coding nor its usage by the customer. Rather, a better user experience that boosts your business growth is the main purpose. Technologies are available for every step. We come with the essentials: the right choice regarding approach and resources. Only it could enable us to achieve the app development goals.
