IOS APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT

Mobile Application

A mobile application is a software application that works on a specific mobile device's operating system and is downloaded to the device to perform a specific set of functions. Apps can also be device-specific such as iPhone and iPad apps

Mobile Application Platforms iOS Android Windows Blackberry

Mobile Application Types

Web Native Hybrid

Mobile Web Application Mobile Web apps are server-side apps,

built with any server-side technology (PHP, Node.js, ASP.NET) that render HTML that has been styled so that it renders well on a device form factor.

Native Application

Native apps are built for a specific platform with the platform SDK, tools and languages, typically provided by the platform vendor (e.g. xCode/Objective-C for iOS, Eclipse/Java for Android, Visual Studio/C# for Windows Phone).

Hybrid Application

Hybrid apps, like native apps, run on the device, and are written with web technologies (HTML5, CSS and JavaScript). Hybrid apps run inside a native container, and leverage the device’s browser engine (but not the browser) to render the HTML and process the JavaScript locally. A web-to-native abstraction layer enables access to device capabilities that are not accessible in Mobile Web applications, such as the accelerometer, camera and local storage.
