As every business expands, there will be a need for the company to expand its services as desired by the customers. Then how would a company/business fulfill these requirements? The answer would be definitely to have an App for your company. This is because these days many people are expecting good services through friendly applications.
There exist 3 types of Mobile Apps
- Websites/Web Apps
- Native Apps
- Hybrid Apps
1. Mobile Websites/Web Apps:
Web Apps are built using standard web technologies like HTML/CSS/JavaScript. These Apps run inside a browser like Chrome, Firefox.
Web Apps are responsive and they are designed with a mobile-first approach which means they focus on mobile view. However, they support the desktop view as well. Web Apps are easy to maintain. Only one web app can be built which runs on all platforms with an Internet connection. These are cheaper and slower than native and hybrid apps.
An Example for Web app is a progressive web app.
2.Native Apps
A Native Application is the most common type of Mobile App. Native Apps are built for a specific platform i.e., we use java to code Native apps for an Android platform and Swift to build apps for an iOS platform. As these are built for a specific platform they are fast. Native apps are interactive and are easily approved by App stores.
3.Hybrid Apps
A hybrid app is a combination of a web app and a native app. It uses HTML /CSS /JavaScript and runs inside a container/ web view. These don't need a browser to run.
We can build hybrid apps faster than a native app, because of its single code base which speeds up the apps for use on all platforms like Android, iOS, Windows, etc rather than separate code for separate platforms.
These are also built with platforms that use web technologies but convert the app into native components. React Native is a framework that is booming these days to build strong cross-platform applications for the industry which has almost equal performance with native apps. React Native is an open-source framework for cross-platform mobile application development.
