Software splashdown, WaveMaker React Native Studio for iOS & Android development
Accelerated software development company WaveMaker has taken the wraps off React Native studio.
The technology seeks to make native mobile app building accessible to web developers familiar with JavaScript.
It helps web developers build native mobile apps, provides custom reusable components with what the firm likes to call “enterprise-grade scaffolding” and high-quality code generation functions.
The company says that React Native technology accelerates and simplifies development of mobile applications that have all of the features commonly found in truly native applications.
This has led to a resurgence in demand for mobile applications among organisations.
WaveMaker helps overcome React Native skill shortages in developer teams by empowering developers with web skills using a low code approach.
“Businesses today need to innovate faster than ever, and our React Native-based platform helps them do just that,” said Deepak Anupalli, co-founder and CTO of WaveMaker. “By combining low code with React Native, we enable teams to build cross-platform, secure, enterprise-grade and experience rich mobile apps at a fraction of the time and cost. This solution is designed to help companies stay ahead in a fast-moving, mobile-first world.”
WaveMaker Studio for React Native provides web developers with “a familiar JavaScript paradigm” to create apps for both iOS and Android devices from a single codebase.
It translates complex CSS and components into high-quality React Native code.
The integrated low code driven development environment comes with tools for testing, debugging, installer creation and deployment.
Reusable prefab component system
WaveMaker uses a “reusable prefab component system” that serves both web and mobile application architectures. While factory components can be used with minimal customisation, it provides a way for developers to bring in their custom components and design system elements.
This reduces development time and ensures a consistent user experience across both web and mobile platforms.
With React Native at its core, WaveMaker claims that its platform empowers developers to build native-like apps for both iOS and Android from a single codebase.
The platform integrates Agile methodologies, allowing for iterative development and quick adaptation to market changes, enabling companies to release apps up to thrice as fast.
WaveMaker uses its cloud infrastructure to allow customers to access scalable resources and streamline deployment processes. This reduces operational costs and enhances the overall performance and reliability of web and mobile applications built on the platform.
