Cross Platform Mobile Application DevelopmentNaveen DanturiPranay MahendraSlide2

So. . .According to the Global Developer Survey ’13 conducted by Telerik, over 5000 developers said that they developed apps using HTML5 in 2012 and 90% of them plan to do so in 2013. Only 15% of developers said they would prefer to use a native-only approach.Slide3

Platforms developers are looking forward to

Development Difficulty

Blackberry

and

iOS

are the

most

 difficult platforms to develop

for

Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 ranked as the easiest with Android falling in the middle.Slide5

Types of Apps being built using HTML5The

most important modern web technologies right now include forms and validation, databases and flexible layouts (grids,

flexbox

, etc.)Slide6
Slide7

UsageApple’s iOS is the leading mobile OS in 30 countries. Canada-83.7%, United States at

35.2

%.

Android accounts for more than 50% of the mobile web traffic with South Korea at 78.3% and United States at 23.3%.

Blackberry is the leading mobile OS in four countries, Dominican Republic, 57.1% and United States, 32.0%

Symbian is the leading mobile OS in more than 

100 countries,

Nokia’s Symbian-based phones are widely used in developing nations. However, it has almost no foothold in the US market. Slide8

Why Cross PlatformWhat your app will do? Who it’s for?

W

here

it will

run?

Do you maintain

different

and completely independent

apps for each platform?

Design a hybrid app with one code base?Pros and

cons?Slide9

Emerging Cross Platform FrameworksSlide10

Main Features Most of them use web based languages – HTML5, javascriptPerformance solely depends on the language being used.Provide Backend as a Service (MBaaS) which includes cloud storage, social networking and ‘push notifications’.Support Web Services ranging from JSON, XML, SOAP, HTTP etc.

These tools cannot access device specific feature like the

bluetooth

, NFC and other controls.

Source code is typically organized in the MVC format separating data tier, application and the interface.

Problem with compiling

iOS

ApplicationsSlide11

Developed by

Appcelerator

Inc.

Titanium is free and

opensource

Apps written in

javascript

Support to build Android,

iOS

and Blackberry Apps, trying to extend support for Windows.

Interpreter for Android and BlackBerry is MozillaRhino, for iOS JavascriptCore

Native experience – ‘not quite there’Source code organizationDevice Specific Functionality – No built in support for Bluetooth and NFC. Web services – SOAP, XML, JSON

Code maintenance MBaaS

support

TitaniumSlide12

Developed by

Adobe Systems

Free

and

opensource

Apps written in

HTML5, CSS3 and

Javascript

Support

for

Android, iOS, Blackberry, WebOS, Windows Phone, Symbian and Bada

.Apache Cordova is the heart of the backend.Performance limited because of hybrid nature of the app.

Source code organizationNo

built in support for Bluetooth and NFC.

No Web services support built in.

Cloud Compiler

PhoneGapSlide13

RhodesDeveloped by Motorola.Native app like feel. Apps written in Ruby and recently extended for JavaScript

Support to build Android,

iOS

, Blackberry

Apps,

Windows phone and Mobile.

Source

code organization

Device Specific Functionality – No built in support for Bluetooth and NFC.

Rich web service support built in.Free but not for commercial users.

RhoHub is their MBaaSSlide14

CoronaDeveloped by Corona Labs.Apps written in Lua.Free until app isn’t published.

Support to build Android,

iOS

, NOOK and Kindle Fire Applications.

Application is compiled using

Lua

libraries mashed with OpenGL and

OpenAL

.

Native controls using underlying libraryDevice Specific Functionality – No built in support for Bluetooth and NFC.

Web services – HTTP,HTTPS,SOAP, JSONCloud service is called Corona Cloud.Targeted for game developers.Slide15

MarmaladeDeveloped by Ideaworks3d.Upfront licensing.Apps written in C++Support

to build

iOS

, Android

, BlackBerry

PlayBook

OS, and

bada

.

Binary combined with Segundo Embedded Execution Environment (S3E) All device specific functionality except Bluetooth and NFC.

Web services – SOAP, XML, JSONMarmalade Juice – plan to port Objective C source code into Marmalade.Slide16

MonoCrossPart of the Mono ProjectBuilt on the .NET framework.C# is used to build apps.Support to build Android and

iOS

.

Specific platform tools –

Xamarin

Xamarin

Windows Communication Foundation– Bing Maps APISlide17

Sencha TouchOver 50 built-in components.Built-in MVC systemApps written in HML5 and CSS3.

Sencha

Touch 2.2 is the latest

version

Faster

, Cheaper and highly customizable

PC developers can now create

iOS

applications without needing a Mac. 

More than 500,000 developersRich

set of documentationSlide18

jQuery MobileBuilt on the rock-solid jQuery and jQuery UI foundationIts lightweight size

makes

it a speed freak 

JQuery

Mobile

1.3.1 recently launched

AJAX-powered

navigation

systemExtensions are easy to makeNo established architecture

Easy to debugMarkup-based and is backed by a smart communitySlide19

What is good about CPD?Implement a feature once and share it across platformsUsing a webview might be faster than writing a native implementation for simple screens

Update

content without requiring a full app release by serving your pages off a

server

One

tool to create, debug, and deploy

.

Speed increases and cost decreases

Multiple

security methods aren’t neededSimple for web developers to useSlide20

ComplexitySlide21

ConsRequires a bridge for their pages to interact with native chrome and call native APIsMaintain a fork, if new functionality is addedWrite

a little code, run it on

iPhone, Android, Windows Mobile simulator.

Several

straightforward implementations for a single complex

implementation.

Harder

problems are inconsistencies in platform conventions

.

Maybe web technology will one day be as fast as native codeSlide22

What does it all boil down to?Slide23
