Mobile Application Development using Agile Methodology
Today, mobile is not merely used for making calls or sending messages, it has become much above that. Currently, it is used for creating videos, preparing presentations, online payments, editing images, running a social media account and many more. All these can be easily done with the help of mobile applications. Therefore, developing a mobile application as per the current trends is of utmost necessity.
Mobile Application Development using a traditional methodology is a challenging task. Although a traditional methodology works great with desktop application development but the same can’t be remarked for mobile applications. Agile Methodology on the other hand is one of the most effective approaches to all mobile app developers which can easily handle big and complicated projects.
How Agile Methodology works?
Back in 2000-2001, when the term agile software development was coined, it included programming, project management and development that break down the entire software lifecycle into sprints. It is a flexible and iterative approach which is of great help when a client frequently changes his requirements. It involves high customer engagement, as feedback is taken from customers after completion of every sprint which on an average lasts for 2-3 weeks.
While developing a mobile application, a developer has to work with different operating systems, have to develop an app that can be updated and downloaded easily, and at the same time can provide a user-friendly interface. Keeping in mind all these factors, agile methodology can be of great assistance for developers in the following ways:
- It facilitates the constant interaction of developers with the customers.
- It provides flexibility to do modifications at any stage of software development, as per the needs of the client.
- It allows the large software development lifecycle into a bunch of small manageable nuggets so every resource can be utilized with utmost optimization.
- It promotes quick deliveries and adaptive planning.
