Today, I have illustrated in my article about different technologies and tools used for the development of latest mobile applications. If we see the progress in the technologies, we will find IT technology has progressed most beside other technologies. Every year some new IT technology has come in the market. It may be based on language, tool and framework for the development of different apps.

Today,IOS App Development Articles the fastest development in technologies are evolving in IT field. As we see latest IT technologies such as different languages, platforms and frameworks for the development of different applications are coming each day. Currently there are various platform and tools technologies which are using in the development of software applications. Some latest Mobile app development platform and tools technologies can be described as below:

  • Xamarin
  • Ionic
  • Flutter
  • React Native

Xamarin – It is the first cross-platform mobile app development framework.  In this framework, the developer can develop both Android and IOS applications. It looks like a Native. The top engineers team has develop this frame work, who have also created Mono technology. Xamarin framework generally uses C# language due to its special features of portability, metaprogramming and functional programming. It uses mono execution environment for both IOS and Android platform. In the case of IOS, Mono execution environment runs along with C runtime and on Unix kernel, while in the case of Android, it runs along with Android Runtime on Linux kernel. Its configuration is heavily dependent on Visual Studio. It requires separate configurations for IOS and Android. It came in existence in 2011.

Ionic – It is another frame work which is free open source mobile UI toolkit for developing high-quality cross-platform apps for native IOS, Android, and the web. It is most probably used for hybrid mobile app development and it is created by three engineers’ team in 2013, whose names are Max Lynch, Ben Sperry and Adam Bradley. It provides tools and services to develop various hybrid mobile applications which are based on a MVC environment, it also uses Web technologies like CSS, HTML5, and Sass. First of all developers can develop any of their applications using this framework and then they can customised their build up apps for Android, IOS, Windows and any other modern browsers according to their requirements.

Flutter – Xamarin and React Native were the only two famous frame work, before the existence of Flutter, which were used more generally by the developers for the development of cross-platform mobile application. Flutter is another frame work which is given by Google in 2017, which is used by developers in the development of cross-platform mobile application. This Framework uses the Dart programming language. Java developers can easily understand this programming language as it supports most of the object-oriented concepts and it is easy to get started with Dart. It has generally all the components inbuilt, which increases its size and have no any bridge requirement to communicate with the native modules. It is said by developers that Flutter gives complete base, since what is required for app development, Flutter engine possess all in itself.

React Native – React Native is another best technology for the development of android mobile applications. It is also open source framework which was launched by Facebook IT Engineers team in the year of 2015. In this framework, developers can only use JavaScript and React_JS to build cross platform native mobile applications. One most important quality of react native framework is that developers have to write one time code to build apps, which can run on Android and IOS both platforms. As we know React Native is a JavaScript framework; hence if any web developer has interest in the mobile apps, he can switch from web development to mobile app development.

In the IOS application development, the most basic tools which are used in the development of IOS apps are IntelliJ AppCode and Xcode, these tools help IOS developers to start development of app initially. These tools are most generally used by iPad and iPhone app developers. Xcode is used in the start up to create a good user interface with the help of storyboard. Xcode also helps in the further steps of IOS app development such as in creating the files, debugging them and in submitting the apps to the app store. Another important core tools of IOS app development are IOS and SDK. The programming languages which are used in IOS app development are C, Objective-C and Swift.
