Best Application Development Practices To Follow In 2020

There are a lot of things to keep in mind when it comes to application development. As a business, you want the best of everything for your customers but sometimes it’s hard to achieve with a limited budget and resources.

Here are some best practices to make the most out of what you can do with your application:

Think streamlined

Being able to quickly and easily understand how to use an application is one of the top things a user will look for. People would much rather choose an interface with simple design rather than one with overwhelming clutter because people do not want to waste their time combing through everything in the application.

Ask yourself  how your customers will want to navigate through the application

Where would your business be without its customers? When you think through the development of an application, you should make everything easy: Are the categories clear and obvious? Are all links titled?

Keep all the information you get from customers protected

Professional hackers steal customer information through data breaches of corporations all the time – and the result is never pretty. From the very beginning of the application development services, building up a protective security detail is essential to keeping your customer’s important information safe.

Do your research on the competition

What do they do that customers dislike? On the other hand, what do they excel at? While you never want to copy what your competitors are doing, it can be extremely helpful for the development of your application to know what will and what will not work. Instead of making the same mistakes they did, you can save money by skipping them entirely!

Be customer-driven

Here at Charter Global, we often talk about being customer-focused within every aspect of a business strategy. By thinking of the end customer, you focus on what will bring you the most profit, in the long run, returning happy customers. While it is important to stick to a budget when developing, it is even more crucial to the overall success of the application that it is spent on working on the parts of the application that make things easier, simpler, and better for your customers themselves.


Following these 2020 best practices will enable your application to better utilize the budget you set, integrate customer-focused tools, and increase your application’s chance of success once it is published. Deciding to create an application is a big decision – not to mention all the smaller

It’s time to upgrade your application development Tech Stack

Tech stacks are the source of data and all the elements that go into the building (as well as running) a mobile or web application. New versions of tech stacks are very common – as people continue to innovate, changes must be made in how applications are created. These updates can improve the capabilities of the stack, boost security, and make applications easier to develop overall.

As with anything, it can be easy getting stuck in the traditional way of doing things. Developers might find a tech stack they like and stick with it for quite a while because it’s familiar and easy for them to use. However, these developers are missing out on many tools and opportunities that new industry tech stacks bring. The best developers understand the need to balance reliability with modernity and scalability.

A company’s tech stack should constantly be evolving. While it might stick to the same foundations, finding ways to reduce response times, cut costs, leverage data, and better meet customer needs is a critical aspect of being successful. The most profitable companies in the world are those that are consistently updating their tech stacks to better support the ever-evolving applications they create for their customers.

Not only is it important that the application is backed by updated technology, but also with developers that are able to adapt to the changing situation. New industry tech can sometimes have a hard learning curve, but without learning the proper skills, this new tech can go to waste (or simply not be used to the best of its ability). Developers should always work as a team when deciding what to add on to their stack to ensure widespread support and synergy across them all in order to maximize the potential of the tech.

Additionally, when adopting new industry tech, developers have a better opportunity to automate their base processes, enabling them to add on more things without compromising the integrity of the entire application. This can also free up the time needed to learn those new skills we mentioned above. Instead of worrying about keeping up with adding on more and more things to a developer’s to-do list, they are able to take a large amount of static work off of themselves with automation to streamline the process. Developers can then work on creating new features that will add value to their application, like more extensive dashboards.

Keeping track of all the new tools available for your stack can be overwhelming. Charter Global is able to help you reduce cycle time while increasing quality and stability with the various tech stack tools available. We can evaluate your current tech stack to determine areas for improvement making your application development easier to develop overall.

Understanding the 3 Types of Apps: Native, Mobile, and Hybrid

A breakdown of the 3 types of apps and a list of the best cross platforms to use in mobile app development

x

Native mobile apps:

Native mobile apps are designed to be “native” to one platform, whether it’s Apple iOS, Google’s Android, or Windows Phone. The native platform can be advantageous because it tends to optimize the user experience. Because it was developed specifically for the platform, it can operate more quickly and intuitively.

Hybrid mobile apps: 

These apps can be installed on devices just like native apps, but they run through web browsers. All hybrid apps are developed through the HTML5 programming language. Though hybrid apps are not as fast or reliable as native apps, they have a greater capacity for streamlining the development process. Because you don’t have to build and maintain apps for separate platforms, your business can save on time and resources. It’s ideal for apps that primarily deliver content.

Web apps: 

Responsive websites switch to a different design when they are accessed from a mobile device. Adaptive web applications, on the other hand, scale to fit the different screen sizes of mobile devices. For these apps, the design doesn’t change. Web apps are built using the most popular programming languages, but they can’t use hardware on mobile devices or be sold in any app stores.

Charter Global leverages its experience across multiple, proven app development and ecommerce cloud-based platforms:  SAP Fiori, SAP HANA, SAP Business One, Magento, PCI DSS, Spring MVC (Framework), Magnolia CMS/ Blossom module, HTML5, CSS3, JQuery, Struts.

How to Choose the Right Platform for Mobile App Development

Today with a large number of smartphone users that are increasing rapidly, the mobile application market has become one of the great business promotion platforms. Making an app that reflects your company, its products, and services, are an awesome experience. But which application platform will you choose to make that perfect app?

1. Mobile App Development Platform – What is it Exactly?
2. Guidelines to Select the Best Mobile Application Development Platform

Here are few guidelines that would help you choose the best mobile application development platform.

1. Platform Features: The platform should also support important features like scalability, app store deployments, data synchronization and access control. A mobile application development platform should also include extensible back-end and middleware services so that it can deliver features like push notifications, authentication, and data storage.

2. Operating System Support: The majority of mobile devices run Google Android, but enterprises generally favor Apple iOS, with a smattering of Windows devices; even BlackBerry survives in some corners. Most major mobile application development platforms support both Android and iOS development and to a lesser degree Windows.

3. Cross-platform Development: Cross-platform development is the process of building a hybrid or native apps that run on multiple operating systems. The app developer creates a single code base for which the cross-platform tool automatically generates the code for the target operating system.

4. Native Apps: Native apps are ones that make use of features which are native to the mobile device like camera or GPS. Web applications are ones that are built using HTML5 and CSS3. Hybrid applications are a combination of both web and native apps. The mobile application development has to be chosen in accordance with this decision.
