Cross-platform, native app development using Javascript. Besides this, the competency of React Native to build user interfaces is what make developers to define this framework as an edgy technology stack for mobile app development.

Just pose a question about building an Android or iOS app, and you will certainly find people referring to Objective-C, Swift, and Java as the only native languages for development. Possibly, they are oblivious about the new ecosystem of platforms and the potential that they bring in for mobile app development.

App download number is a delusive metric, as it does not reflect whether the application’s objective or key value proposition is being met or not. To figure out whether your app is achieving what it was built for (more revenue, user engagement or brand building), you need to go beyond counting app store downloads. The following post describes 15 metrics that matter the most for any sort of mobile application, why they are important and how to track them.

Games, sports, eCommerce, social media, retail, healthcare! There is hardly an industry that has not experienced the magic of Augmented Reality (AR). And today, this technology is upgrading our real world by overlaying pieces of virtuality on it. For enabling  developers to make the most of AR and integrate it into web and mobile apps, there are some amazing SDKs available. Here, we share a few of them (Free and Paid).

Ideas are easy. It's the execution of ideas that really separates the sheep from the goats. ~ Sue Grafton

No matter how great an idea is, it is nothing more than a hallucination, if not executed well. And that is why, choosing a right partner for giving life to your idea is extremely important.

Over 400 million smartphones, 4 million apps for download, 80 billion annual app store revenue! These numbers certainly project that year 2017 took over the the ownership of the mobile world. And if the future prognosis are to be believed, these numbers are bound to rise dramatically.

From startups to Fortune 500, every company has a mind to risk management for dealing with those out of the blue scenarios. In an app development project, it’s the Minimum Viable Product (MVP) that helps the businesses to evaluate and forecast the risk, so that a deliverable is rendered, which is accepted by the targeted persona.

In the IT ecosystem, there is more pressure than ever to be agile, without compromising the security and reliability. For a consistent product development cycle, people, processes, and tools need to be streamlined effectively. This is where DevOps comes into the picture, addressing the stumbling blocks of continuous integration, testing, and deployment in the software development cycle.
