Abstract:
Native Application Development will provide engineers with professionally developed and curated recipes for the 20 of the most common tasks that represent functionality seen in modern native iOS and Android applications. The selected tasks will provide a cross-reference for each platform–a modern Rosetta Stone, of sorts. A developer can look up an easily translatable set of instructions for completing a routine bit of functionality in both platforms in a way that follows best practices. Following that, we'll provide step-by-step direction to create a fully-functional application using modern practices and designs that will utilize those tasks, one in each platform. The development of the apps will be laid out side-by-side, so that the friction usually involved in switching between platforms while developing is greatly reduced. By the end of the book, the reader will have developed both an iOS app and an Android with exactly the same core features, as well as some additional features that are relevant and unique to each app’s operating system. This book will provide a blueprint for software engineers to create an app that will reach 99.9% of the smartphone market, while functioning as a Rosetta stone in multi-platform development. The reality of modern application development is that most developers will need to have some reference across platforms at some point, if not as a regular requirement.
