Mobile application development involves creating software applications for mobile devices like phones and tablets. There are different operating systems for mobile applications including Android, iOS, and Windows. Android applications are developed for the Linux-based Android operating system and use touch gestures for interaction. iOS applications are developed exclusively for Apple devices and also use touch gestures. Windows applications can be developed for the various Windows operating systems used in computing. While web applications don't currently match native apps, browser improvements are helping web apps access more device features.
2. INTRODUCTION
● Mobile application development is a term used to denote the
act or process by which application software is developed for
mobile devices, such as personal digital assistants, enterprise
digital assistants or mobile phones. These applications can be
pre-installed on phones during manufacturing platforms, or
delivered as web applications using server-side or client-side
processing (e.g., JavaScript) to provide an "application-like"
experience within a Web browser. Application software
developers also must consider a long array of screen sizes,
hardware specifications, and configurations because of
intense competition in mobile software and changes within
each of the platforms
3. TYPES OF OPERATING SYSTEM
● ANDRIOD: Is a mobile operating system developed by
Google, based on the Linux kernel and designed primarily
for touchscreen mobile devices such as smartphones and
tablets. Android's user interface is mainly based on direct
manipulation, using touch gestures that loosely
correspond to real-world actions, such as swiping, tapping
and pinching, to manipulate on-screen objects, along with
a virtual keyboard for text input. In addition to touchscreen
devices, Google has further developed Android TV for
televisions, Android Auto for cars, and Android Wear for
wrist watches, each with a specialized user interface.
4. TYPES OF OPERSTING SYSTEM
CONT...
● IOS:(formerly iPhone OS) is a mobile operating system
created and developed by Apple Inc. exclusively for its
hardware. It is the operating system that presently powers
many of the company's mobile devices, including the iPhone,
iPad, and iPod Touch. It is the second most popular mobile
operating system globally after Android.The iOS user
interface is based upon direct manipulation, using multi-touch
gestures. Interface control elements consist of sliders,
switches, and buttons. Interaction with the OS includes
gestures such as swipe, tap, pinch, and reverse pinch, all of
which have specific definitions within the context of the iOS
operating system and its multi-touch interface.
5. TYPES OF OPERATING SYSTEM
CONT...
● WINDOWS:Microsoft Windows, or simply Windows, is a
metafamily of graphical operating systems developed,
marketed, and sold by Microsoft. It consists of several
families of operating systems, each of which cater to a
certain sector of the computing industry with the OS
typically associated with IBM PC compatible architecture.
Active Windows families include Windows NT and
Windows Embedded; these may encompass subfamilies,
e.g. Windows Embedded Compact (Windows CE) or
Windows Server. Defunct Windows families include
Windows 9x, Windows Mobile and Windows Phone.
6. CONCLUSION
● For now, web apps are not yet able to emulate native apps
perfectly. Native apps talk directly to the operating system,
while web apps talk to the browser, which talks to the OS.
This extra layer that web apps have to pass through makes
them slightly slower and coarser than native apps.
However, the rapid pace of mobile web browser
development is allowing more and more native device
features to be accessed by web applications, slowly
eliminating the gap between web and native.
