MOBILE APP DEVELOPMENT
principles and Methodologies

Krasamo works with lean-agile principles and collaborative cross-functional teams in an iterative approach from concept to launch. Our UI/UX designers communicate with developers to ensure they continually focus on users and refine the app according to feedback.

Our developers are autonomous to execute tasks and follow Scrum or SAFe frameworks with a team of product owners, designers, and project managers. Project work is completed in sprints (two-week periods) with ongoing team participation in events for planning, communication (daily standups), development work, review, and retrospective.

Our teams make every effort to analyze, implement, and monitor product requirements and changes through a shared understanding as they move together toward achieving project goals.

Project Management: Project management often determines the success of a project, and failure results from poor planning and execution. At Krasamo, we strive to drive performance and a high output level through a process and methodology that aligns project requirements with company values, goals and aspirations, and culture.

It is critical to understand and apply these principles to your project and specifications and to implement project management techniques and methods during the project lifecycle.

UX Research and User Experience
A Human-Centered Design Process

User experience (UX) research helps define specific functions for products and detects usability problems early in the process, providing the opportunity to solve problems in the requirements phase, thereby saving time in the UX/UI design and development process. UX research techniques reduce failure rates and help capture requirements.

Krasamo UX teams focus on discovering and validating usability criteria as well as understanding users, tasks, and environments.

UI/UX DESIGN for mobile app development

The UX team involves users and observes their behavior in context to understand their needs, exposing them early to design concepts with multiple assumptions. The UX team performs usability testing with artifacts, prototypes, and system demos throughout the design and development process.

Krasamo provides an iterative–agile design process of continuous design and testing, through feedback and learning, until the product is refined and users reach a delightful experience.

User experience is so important that consumers are often willing to pay a premium for digital products with improved usability. A good UX design process dictates the success of a mobile app.

Front-end MOBILE APP DEVELOPMENT

Front-end app development is about developing visual and interactive applications with a designated team of developers and designers to create the client-side (front-end) components that reside on the device and connect with the back-end through custom and existing APIs and SDKs.

Krasamo’s skilled developers can work on mobile app development for iOS and Android using an appropriate programming language and front-end frameworks to achieve a successful outcome.

How do I choose front-end framework?
Together we’ll consider these options:

Back end MOBILE APP DEVELOPMENT

Back-End App Development is about building server-side services (back-end) with infrastructure and logic, then leveraging them with third-party services adaptative to the solution—connecting the application to libraries, databases, and other programs.

What is an Integrated
Development Environment (IDE)?

At Krasamo, our teams work with IDE applications to support development in a standardized environment in order to write code offering control and customization. When choosing app development tools, it is important to discuss IDEs, as this is the environment that supports the programming languages, operating systems, automation features, plugins, processing capacity, extensions, and integration with CI/CD tools and other project requirements.

We consider which version control system to use as well as the language and compiling capabilities, the debugging tools, and more. An initial assessment with your Krasamo engineer consultant can provide support for these points and clarify any questions you may have.

Visual Studio Code (VS Code)

VS Code is a lightweight open-source code editor developed by Microsoft, with support for debugging, task running, and version control. It supports Java, JavaScript, Go, NodeJS, Python, and C++. It has a source control built-in feature to use Git and Subversion to create repositories and make push and pull requests directly.

Xcode

Xcode is an integrated development environment for building apps in macOS, iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, and tvOS. Xcode provides a unified SDK to run natively on Intel-based CPUs and Apple Silicone with compilers, frameworks, and debugging tools. Xcode manages the entire workflow and integrates source-code with Git version controls.

Android Studio

Android Studio is the official IDE for building apps for Android devices in Java or Kotlin. It is a robust and flexible unified environment that provides testing tools, frameworks, and integration with version control tools, including built-in tools for Google Cloud Platforms and connection with Firebase.

Visual Studio

VS is a feature-rich integrated development environment (IDE) created by Microsoft. Optimized for cross-platform mobile app development, VS has many productivity features. Some popular features include compilers, refactoring, Intellisense (code completion tool) tracking, and sharing code with others using Git. Visual Studio supports many built-in programming languages directly and through plug-ins and many other functionalities as a service in VSPackages.

MOBILE APP
DEVELOPMENT LANGUAGES

Which language is best for mobile app development? Our teams make assessments and recommendations, but in general, the best mobile app development language choice depends on the type of application (native, cross-platform, or web-based), the app’s requirements, the team’s skills, and the language’s capacity to leverage frameworks, languages, the application’s integrated development environment (IDE), and platforms.

Krasamo teams work with a number of popular languages:

QUALITY ASSURANCE:
mobile APP development TESTING

We test apps using manual or automated tools to optimize usability, functionality, and performance throughout the development process, analyzing the app components and results using emulators and physical devices that provide feedback. App testing validates test cases and scenarios to determine if features are working correctly.

Mobile App Testing Tools:

APP DEPLOYMENT— RELEASE

DevOps Teams synchronize cadence and schedules to deliver frequently during the process and optimize a continuous delivery and continuous integration (CD/CI) automated pipeline to run and test.

Developers can benefit from platform-as-a-service (PaaS) solutions to develop, run, and deploy the mobile app. PaaS solutions integrate with popular tools and workflows, providing scalability, support, and access to ecosystems, with savings in hardware running and maintenance.
