React Native

When developing customised apps, soxes relies on proven technologies and frameworks. When planning and designing projects, soxes makes sure to utilise synergies in order to keep the effort and costs as low as possible. When developing an app for iOS and Android, the open source framework is a cost-effective alternative to conventional native development with Swift, Java or Kotlin. React Native offers both cost-efficient and time-saving solutions for your company.

Cross-platform development allows our developers to use their JavaScript skills to create apps for iOS and Android, eliminating the need for separate development teams and reducing costs. The reusability of code and the availability of pre-built components further accelerate the development process. Hot reloading allows us to see changes in real time, which speeds up the iteration process, while the use of a single codebase reduces the time spent on debugging and troubleshooting.

5 reasons in favour of React Native for app development

1. Cross-platform development: With React Native, developers can develop mobile apps for iOS and Android at the same time, as the majority of the code is cross-platform. This reduces the development effort compared to creating separate apps for each platform.
2. Reusability of code: Much of the code written for a React Native app can be reused between platforms. This speeds up development and makes maintenance easier.
3. JavaScript: React Native uses JavaScript as the programming language, which is already familiar to many developers. This makes it easier to get started and allows a wider talent pool to be utilised for development.
4. Native performance: React Native offers native performance as the apps are rendered with native UI components. This means that React Native apps can compete with native apps in terms of speed and user experience.
5. Hot Reloading: React Native offers the possibility of hot reloading, which means that changes to the code can be reflected in the running app in real time. This speeds up the development process and enables faster iteration.

For the development of the smartBSAzg application for the Civil Engineering Office of the Canton of Zug, soxes relied on React Native to implement the mobile app. With the app, recorded BSA data can be requested from the database by scanning the datamatrix on the BSA signs installed on site.
