To help you make a decision, in this video, we’ll discuss all three mobile app development approaches. Let’s begin!

PROGRESSIVE APP DEVELOPMENT

PWA development aims to make a web application function similarly to a mobile or desktop app. Similarly to a native applications, PWAs have an icon on the mobile home screen and can send push notifications. This approach helps businesses bridge the gap between web and native experiences.

For PWA development some of the popular frameworks are -

HTML with JavaScript, AngularJS, ReactJS, VueJS, Ionic2, PWA Builder

NATIVE APP DEVELOPMENT

Under this approach, apps are developed using programming languages and tools that are specific to a single platform or OS. In this smartphone hardware features can be used to build an interactive user experience.

Native Apps for iOS are built primarily using programming languages Swift and Objective-C, for Android using Java, and Kotlin plus tools the platform provides.

CROSS-PLATFORM APP DEVELOPMENT

In the Cross-platform mobile application development approach, mobile apps are developed to function for multiple mobile OS platforms. These apps are compatible with major operating systems, such as iOS and Android. With one source code and faster time to market, this approach has been a favourite of many.

The most popular frameworks for cross-platform development are - Flutter, React Native, Titanium and Xamarin

Now, we will compare for all 3 approaches based on the following top 5 critical factors.

UI & UX
Performance
Compatability
Time to Market
