We assist startups and established companies in developing mobile solutions that complement their brand identities, satisfy consumer wants, and promote company development and expansion.

Taxi

The Driver’s and Passenger’s in-app roles or applications make up most on-demand taxi apps. Taxi applications need to include in-app calling features, payment mechanisms like Stripe and PayPal, and map APIs like Google Maps and MapKit in addition to basic functions (Twilio, Bandwith).

Tech Stack for Custom Mobile Apps

Languages

Many different activities, including the creation of Android apps, may be accomplished using this general-purpose language. Java’s key benefits are portability, scalability, and outstanding performance, making it the ideal language for creating sophisticated corporate systems that need flexibility for expansion.

This is the new open-source programming language that Google employs instead of Java to create Android applications. It is easy to compile to JavaScript or JVM bytecode and has a simple syntax. The creation of apps moves more quickly and provides developers with more resources to create native Android apps thanks to interoperability with all Java frameworks and libraries.

For all Apple operating platforms, Swift is a powerful programming language supported by Apple that enables the development of top-notch and quick apps. Swift is the perfect tool for creating iOS apps of any sophistication because of its safety, simplicity, and ongoing performance improvements.

For more than 30 years, the creation of iOS apps has been actively employing this object-oriented programming language. Due to the millions of lines of code that have been developed in Objective-C, this fact alone makes it dependable. This code is also backward compatible with the C and C++ programming languages.

Databases

By releasing developers from backend tasks like managing servers and designing APIs, this backend-as-a-service platform enables them to concentrate on creating the best possible user experience. Firebase facilitates quicker development of iOS native apps because it is essentially an all-in-one backend solution.

It is a thin database designed to do away with server-client architecture and keep all app data on a smartphone. Since this DB is built on files, it offers a variety of developer-friendly features. SQLite is significantly more effective and quicker since it doesn’t make queries to the server.

Realm is a well-liked mobile database for Android and each iOS app development platform. It has a simple API, is cross-platform, very quick (far faster than SQLite), and is thread-safe. The creators refer to it as a modern and trustworthy alternative to the built-in Apple databases.

The CoreData framework allows for the acceleration of iOS application development. CoreData makes memory management easier since programmers only load into memory the items they are actively using at the time. The program may use a database by combining object sorting and optional automated property value validation.

Frameworks

QA professionals may start tests for Android apps using a local JVM thanks to this open-source Android unit test infrastructure. This form of Android app testing is comparable to black-box testing in that it may be improved for refactoring and also tests the behavior of the app. The testing process is expedited by the framework.

An open-source toolkit featuring Observer patterns and iterator patterns, RxJava is a specialized reactive programming implementation for Java and Android that makes it easier to create high-quality applications with both front-end and back-end components. It provides developers with extensibility, intuitiveness, and rapid response to any modifications.

A Java-based open-source framework for unit testing is called JUnit. It offers a fantastic chance to develop code and test it at the same time! This framework may develop test suites step-by-step to properly track any potential side effects. As a result, it is strong, and the testing process is made simpler by its graphical user interface.

It is a mocking framework for efficient Java application unit testing. This tool makes it easier to create fake objects and enables programmers to evaluate a system’s behavior without setting any assumptions in advance. As a consequence, your test code will be simpler and easier to read and change.

Google developed the automation tool called Espresso. The development process is significantly sped up by using this framework, which is utilized to create clear and trustworthy UI tests and offers several benefits for developers and QA engineers. It offers helpful testing annotations and assertions and is simple to use within well-known IDEs.

A framework called ReactiveCocoa enables the use of reactive functional programming methods for the creation of unique iOS applications. It provides reactive extensions and interfaces for the Cocoa Touch framework, greatly reducing the amount of code. The framework specifies the interface for activities and is tailored to Swift, making it simpler to filter and compose them.

A real-time data transfer and communication framework is socket.io. The integration of conversations and video chats into iOS apps is improved and sped up. Numerous automated procedures are available in Socket.io for simple communication feature implementation. Faster task implementation is made possible by flexible and straightforward modification.

All Apple systems can use the tested and dependable Alamofire library. It is made to operate with HTTP requests. Alamofire greatly increases developer productivity by streamlining a variety of typical operations for businesses that create iOS applications. It makes the code clearer, which reduces the likelihood of problems.

A network abstraction framework called Moya is used to work with network data and to quickly integrate projects with RESTful APIs. The iOS application development business may concentrate on the key elements of the application and accelerate the deployment of networking data thanks to Moya. Developers extract network replies using Moya to run unit tests quickly.
