Prominence of PhoneGap App Development
by John Smith FranticproPhoneGap is
also known as Apache Cordova is an open-source development framework used by
programmers to build cross-platform mobile applications. PhoneGap uses a
wrapper function to extend HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to work natively on iOS,
Windows, and Android mobiles. The result is a hybrid web application with a
native appearance. HTML, CSS, and JS code is displayed through the mobile
devices web browser creating an application that mimics native user interfaces
(UIs). The mobile web browser gains access to native device APIs by combining
native and hybrid snippets to render an app with a native user experience (UE).
Advantages
of PhoneGap App Development
• Release
uniform items overall platforms
In the
starting stages of product development in companies consistency issues arises.
Due to this issue, it was not possible to download uniform features across all
mobile platforms. An app created for Android can look different in iOS and
vice-versa. PhoneGap provides consistency across the cross-platform application
development system.
• Each and
everyone can act like a native application
When PhoneGap
applications take advantage of the properties used and the equipment of the
mobile phone, they function as native applications. Usage property comprises
geolocation, accelerometer, camera, etc. This system provides an amazing
experience at all times.
• Powerful
Backend
When the
framework is a strong backend framework, it reduces development efforts and
helps us develop products quickly. A robust backend looks like a strong root
because it actually affects the performance of our application.
• Two advantages
in one go
PhoneGap is
the most popular cross-platform. We can build a single app and then send it to
the other mobile platforms. PhoneGap plays an important role in business and
development. PhoneGap applications provide products for businesses and developers
are available in the shortest possible time.
Disadvantages
of PhoneGap App Development
• Does not
support plugins with hooks
Plugins with
hooks are not supported by PhoneGap builds which requires them to crash with
the feature. For instance, WordPress has a hook that motivates developers to
link their code to WP with the core codebase, plugins, and themes. Also,
PKGBuild does not support Cordova traps.
• Mac is
required for iOS application development
To design
iOS apps, we need Macs because we can’t design an iOS app without downloading
its SDKs. However, we can compete with the limitation with the help of PhoneGap App
Development Build as it can organize our build and return the latest file.
• Plugins
could be outdated
PhoneGap
plugins may get out of date after using it. It may affect the functionality of
the application. We don’t have plugins for some features like geolocation,
camera, etc.
