Web apps meets mobile

Let’s face it, mobile applications are here to stay, and that is a good thing!

Whether you are carrying a brand new IPhone, the last Blackberry from the market, or your old and trusty Palm, you want your device to be able to handle all kind of stuff. As a developer you want to be able to reach all those new and exciting markets, and provide the same services and solutions as your web applications does.

But it’s not always that easy. A mobile device it’s not like the web.
For starters you have to take into consideration the amount of information you will be displaying; You have to tweak your interface to make it easy to use with probably just one thumb, and there are memory and browser limitations to make it even more complex. On top of that, you’ll probably have to master a couple of new coding languages, which might take some time!.
And, as a coder, you’re anxious to bring your new piece of software to your users.

So what can we do about this?

At Wadomo we love Ruby on Rails. Yes, there are a bunch of languages out there, but we just have found in Ruby on Rails it’s the best match for our scrum-based philosophy:

Design right, code nice, change fast, painless deployment and awesome results!

If you don’t know about Scrum, this is what you are missing
