In addition, you can utilize usability testing to identify and resolve design issues before launching the app.</span></li> <li><b>Visual development environment</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">. Application development platforms offer visual development environments and user-friendly templates that enable even lay users to create apps easily.</span></li> <li><b>Backend data integration</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">. The software presents user-friendly APIs that enable you to easily integrate the solution with backend databases and services.</span></li> <li><b>Quicker development time</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">. This is one of the main benefits of application development software. The platform eliminates or automates the time-consuming code-writing process and allows you to launch your apps faster.</span></li> <li><strong>Customize your own apps</strong>. With application development solutions, you can design your own programs with minimal coding requirements. They give you total control and flexibility in how you want your application to work, allowing you to have a custom program that follows your operations closely.</li> </ol> </div> </div><div class="article-section"> <h3 id="latest-trends"><span class="cat-icon cat-icon--latest-trends"></span>Latest Trends</h3> <div class="article-section__text"> <p><b>Emergence of Integration Platform as a Service</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">. This service refers to the growing market for cloud solutions for data integration such as backend data integrations for applications. Many vendors provide backend data integration assistance, but for complex deployments you require a separate integration as a service.</span></p> <p><b>Rapid Application Development (RAD)</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">. This technology includes drag-and-drop interfaces, predesigned app templates, visual wizards and other tools that enable lay users to design and deploy applications without IT assistance. This type of software is ideal for digital businesses where customer support, marketing and other units need to deploy apps quickly to respond to new opportunities as they arise. </span></p> <p><strong>Continuous Delivery.</strong> Giants like Amazon are leading the continuous delivery trend, which involves the quick implementation of codes as soon as they are written. With continuous integration, testing, and configuration, the number of errors that usually go into software products are more likely to be reduced. They also ensure that all errors are caught immediately and sent back for the developer teams to fix.</p> </div> </div><div class="article-section"> <h3 id="potential-issues"><span class="cat-icon cat-icon--potential-issues"></span>Potential Issues</h3> <div class="article-section__text"> <p><b>Software fragmentation</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">. There are many versions of Android and other operating systems which makes it difficult to run apps in the same way on different devices even if the operating system is the same. Plus, the various types of software in a mobile device read apps differently which creates issues for customers in using the apps. The solution is to test a range of combinations including the older and latest versions of Android or other operating systems.</span></p> <p><b>Different screen sizes</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">. It is not feasible to design apps for the latest platform as mobile devices have limitations based on OS requirements, pixel intensities, embedded technologies, screen sizes etc. In addition, iOS, Windows, and Android operating systems have their own UI objects. The solution is to build a responsive design that makes the app more liquid and compatible with various screen sizes and formats. To avoid display issues, you can beta test the app before launch.</span></p> <p><strong>Poor communication among teams. </strong>Miscommunication among a team of software developers can lead to poor quality of products and services. Without a proper communication system in place, your projects run the risk of falling apart due to errors in your team’s workflow and could affect your target deadlines and project expenses. Thus, implementing a proper communication platform can help streamline your application development process. There are a number of end-to-end solutions out there that can help you keep track of the entire lifecycle of your software projects</p> </div> </div><div class="article-section"> <h3 id="useful-statistics"><span class="cat-icon cat-icon--useful-stats"></span>Useful Statistics</h3> <div class="article-section__text"> <p>Here are some relevant application development statistics that you need to know:</p> <ol> <li>The most widely-used programming language in the world is JavaScript.

Make use of the free trial to understand if the platform fits your requirements. If you select a wrong program, you can bail out easily with minimum losses. </p> <p>Customization and Integration: Pick a vendor that offers a wide choice of software packages and modules. You should be able to pay only for the functionality you use to meet the current needs of your organization. </p> <p>Security and Control: The system should offer robust security. Select a vendor whose databanks are more secure than those in your office to maximize the gains.</p> <p>The Infrastructure: The provider should offer the needed infrastructure so that you need not host anything in-house or require the assistance of internal IT resources.</p> <p>Web Access: Your employees should be able to access data anywhere, anytime.
