Web App

Building a custom web application is the only way to design a unique app that suits your specific business needs. There are no defined regulations to follow, so your application and process flow are precisely how you want them. Your creativity is your only limiting factor. Custom is an especially great approach for complex or enterprise-level business web applications. So, while custom has all these appealing options, are the web applications really limitless?

We have focused our recent articles on No-Code and Low-Code platform options. No-code is typically used to create apps that handle simple functions, while at the same time, Low-code is a little more robust in allowing developers to develop stronger solutions without writing much code. The differences increase when building an application with a half-custom 50/50 solution. This type of development uses highly evolved integrations, such as SharePoint, ServiceNow, and SalesForce, and are perfect examples of platforms where building extensive custom happens within these applications.

As explained in our recent article, Building Apps Using No-code, the No-Code platform option is typically used to create apps that handle simple functions. So, what are the key differences between No-code and Low-code? To start with, Low-code is a little more robust and allows developers to create stronger solutions without writing a lot of code. Low-code platforms provide visual editors and reusable actions that developers can drag and drop into processes for rapid development. This platform enables developers to assemble and build applications without researching, writing quickly and testing new scripts.

No-code development platforms are tools for building software applications without coding. While this seems like a promising alternative to traditional software development, you must wonder what is left out because computers run on code. Is no-code like out-of-the-box software? Well, yes and no. This platform looks like a good answer, especially since non-technical business users always look for ways to build their full-fledged applications. But before considering this alternative, consider these platforms’ advantages and disadvantages.

Most businesses focused the last two years on keeping their company cyber-safe in their cloud-based systems while switching to remote work. However, not much consideration has been given to web application security. The cyberwar in Ukraine has given attention to what we all know instinctively – cybercriminals are getting more innovative, more organized, and more resourceful. Web application attacks, from API-based threats to distributed denial of service (DDoS), are growing fast, and their tactics are getting more sophistication.

Web 3.0 is the third version of the internet and will bring a pattern shift in the way users browse, socially interact, or shop. While Web 2.0 provides better communication and online interactions, this newer version will focus on improving personalization, collective ownership, and sharing of content.

Moving into a new year, we like to look at the current trends projected for 2022 in web applications. We have found that these trends all have one thing in common: they focus on optimizing the user experience, which goes a long way to building a superior application. So here are the top trends in the web application for 2022.
