Mission Statement

Geosyncracy Inc. is focused on developing mobile applications that run on modern smartphone platforms.

Current technology

Geosyncracy uses a technology that was built for the web and is based on the use of HTML 5, CSS and Javascript. Smartphones enable this capability by launching your web application in a Webview. You wrap your HTML, CSS and Javascript in an installable module, like .apk for Android, which then executes the webpage specified by the application in a Webview. The Webview is capable of having the look and feel of a native app. Deploying an application in this manner allows a developer to access native phone features that are not supported by a Javascript interface. This type of application is known as a Hybrid Mobile Application as it mainly uses HTML based technologies but also permits access to features only supported by the native platform. Developed properly, this allows the application to be very portable thus requiring minimal effort on the part of the development team to support many smartphones. Using the popular jQuery and jQuery mobile frameworks enhances the developers ability to focus on the application and not the nuances of each platform. Cordova provides access to the native phone features that your application is likely to require.

Moving to Flutter

A technology that has been around for a few years, developed by Google, is called Flutter. This platform is available on both Android and IOS devices.
It allows the development of cross platform mobile apps from a single code base. Read more about this platform here.
