4 Advantages of Using Corona Enterprise

Corona SDK is a cross-platform framework used to build quality 2D games and mobile apps at an amazing speed using the easy to learn programming language "Lua". Corona SDK enables developers to publish for major platforms such as iOS, Android, Kindle, Windows Phone 8, and Nook from its single code base. It also offers a large list of APIs to execute complex features.

What is Corona Enterprise?

There are several differences between the free Corona SDK and the Enterprise version. Corona SDK only permits the use of Lua, it's own API's and plugins to build an app. There should be a permanent internet connection also to start building from the framework.

On the contrary, apart from letting to use Corona SDK APIs and its plugins, Corona Enterprise allows to use built-in features of native platforms as well that Corona SDK doesn't support by calling any native API or library. Again, Corona Enterprise does not need access to the internet always.

Here are some of the advantages of using Corona Enterprise:

Better development

As mentioned earlier, Corona Enterprise allows to call any native libraries implemented in C/C++/Obj-C/Java etc. The module mechanism enables creation of new libraries implemented in Lua only. But, Enterprise extends this functionality and let developers include libraries implemented as native code as well.

Thus, existing codes which are custom or third party can be reused for including specific features in the corona app by adding the needed Lua bindings. This accounts for faster development and cost efficiency.

Industry Standards

Corona Enterprise shares all the benefits of Corona SDK like development speed, cross-platform development and deployment, and ease of use. Monetization and other functionality are easier and smoother with access to OpenGL, OpenAL, Box2D and other plug-ins. Apart from that, Enterprise is also synchronized with its Daily builds, which makes newer features available without any delay.

Improved workflow

Since Enterprise does not need a full time internet connection for building apps, it can be used for offline building of projects. This will give more control over the workflow of a team. Also, Server builds can be automated by making use of Corona Builder. This can in turn increase the efficiency.

Link with other developers

There is a very large developer base who uses Corona Enterprise for game and app development, both small ones and big. Getting connected with the successful developers will increase your chances of developing a successful app.
