    What is Web App Development?

Web Applications are typically a web page which hosted on browsers which performs like a native app. It gives a dynamic view to the users. In short, web application interacts with app through a web view.

    Web App Development is easy, cost-effective requires less maintenance than a native application. However, it has some drawbacks such as it requires web browsers to run which is slower than that of the native one. Web applications are also less interactive as compared to native and hybrid applications.


    What is Native App Development?

    When you want to have a dedicated application for each platform, Native Mobile Application Development is the way to go. Native applications are developed on a dedicated platform using the native languages such as Swift and Objective-C for iOS and Java or Kotlin for Android.
