- Not just Apps or Mobile UI/Frontend, rather its „Shift towards the Universal Applications” i.e. running on Mobile, tablet, iPad, SmartTV, wearables. Universal Applications Service whenever & wherever needed, AI/VR functionality, GPS based services, M-Commerce, IoT(Internet of Things) like(Wearable technology, Smart Stores, Home Automations etc)
- Cross-Platform and Cross-Device Development [Xamarin with C# & DevOps] Enterprise Apps, Cloud [Azure Services] line-of-business (LOB) are set of critical computer applications that are vital to running an enterprise, it is also used as a synonym for corporate division
- The treand is like.... Expect super efficient service wherever/whenever needed Be smart staying lazy with true Mobility No one wish to go to a terminal for accessing a service or information Hence Mobile client is the ultimate solution.
- 3 popular approaches for achieving Mobility / developing Mobile Clients Web or Hybrid [Wrapper/WebView on Native] Platform Silos, develop separate for each platform Cross-platform-native, develop native app once for all platform with shared codebase & UI
- Advantages: 1.> Pure Native UI and all native integration. 2.> Full performance due to native development. Server-side: database, Webservices etc… are only shared. Every platform developer will go thru a different experience depending on his platform. Total Cost of Ownership will be high as Multiple teams… Different skillsets with respect to every platform Multiple IDEs, Multiple code base, each completely different from other More work hours as need to be developed same features multiple time, each for one platform Release dates may for all platforms as every platform may take its own time
- Cordova: It allows you to use standard web technologies - HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript for cross-platform development. Applications execute within wrappers targeted to each platform, and rely on standards-compliant API bindings to access each device's capabilities such as sensors, data, network status. Advantage: 1.>Works across almost all devices. 2.>Nice for HTML/JavaScript teams to adopt Mobile platform 3.> Our favorite Visual Studio providing productivity DisAdvantage: 1.>As developed with HTML/JavaScript, purely NON-NATIVE User Experience(UX) 2.>Performance will be poor as it cannot use the true capability of Native platform.
- Meets both End User and Developer needs completely. End User: 1.> Pure Native User Experience as its cross-platform NATIVE 2.> Full performance being Native platform integrated Developer: 1.> complete C# code base, no additional programing language 2.> 100% i.e. all Native-API accessible on All platform. 3.> Almost 100% code reuse, saves time of development. 4.> 100% shared UI with Xamarin.Forms. Design once for all platforms. 5.> One Code base, One IDE and same Backend/Server-side
- Xamarin : Cross-platform NATIVE enables you to develop: All C# code. Fully native UI delivering pure native User eXperience [UX] The Android UI can be developed with same AXML with Shared code approach Both XiB & Story board approach is available for iOS XAML in Xamarin forms gives pure Native UI which shared too All platform specific low level API available on all platform Camera, GPS, Microphone, All sensors, every native API exposed Code to be written C# Business logic too shared. One Business logic developed once shared for all platforms Anything can be done with Android Studio or Swift/Obj-C on iOS can be achieved with shared C#
- A "front-end" application is one that application users interact with directly. A "back-end" application or program serves indirectly in support of the front-end services Example: a front-end application might interface directly with users and forward requests to a remotely-located back-end program in another computer to get requested data or perform a requested service. Relative to the client/server computing model, a front-end is likely to be a client and a back-end to be a server.
- Every enterprise has scenarios: premises applications Authentication & identification issues Azure comes to rescue with PaSS services & many back end services Secure cloud services : App/data Connectivity: Azure VPN Authentication / Identification Intune… App & data security Device management
- Powerful Cloud Services & Mobile Center: A powerful integration of backend services for MobDevOps. Authentication / Identity Build Android, iOS and UWP [connect with any codebase/repository] Test using Xamarin Test Cloud[Physical devices, real-time testing] Distribution: Alpha/Beta Groups , Store integration [Play Store/InTune store] Monitoring: Powerful Analytics & Crash reports Easy Push notification Azure storage
- Agile/scrums an alternative to Waterfall/Sequential development Delivers increased value, Visibility, adaptability much earlier in the life cycle significantly reducing project risk
- DevOps (a clipped compound of "development" and "operations") is a software engineering practice that aims at unifying software development (Dev) and software operation (Ops). Perfect intersection/combination of (Dev + QA) + Operation
- Mobile App Continuous Integration Continuous Deploy [CICD] VSTS Work items, backlogs, Repository Build & Deploy : CICD XTC: Xamarin Test Cloud [ Testing App on Various Physical Devices] Beta Testing: HocketApp/MobileCenter Distribution Release: Monitoring… Analytics & CrashReports Fixing bugs… Repeate Cycle
- Various platforms i.e. Android, iOS, UWP Every platform has various versions of OS Many screen sizes, configurations etc Complex App & more complex test scenarios Time consuming manual testing Unlike desktop/web applications, Unpredictable use by Users
