The Foundation of all Successful Apps is Requirements Gathering”, says our CEO for App Develop

Our CEO, Abhishek Agarwal is featured in this month’s issue of App Developer Magazine, in software company sharing his wisdom on how to develop the best possible app.The first and most important step towards successful app development is requirements gathering in order to

Determine the size and complexity of the app

Work out apps functional processes

Identify the right development methodology

Identify and assign right resources that will deliver their best performance during app development.

The Rightway team under his guidance follows the following practice in the requirements gathering process:

Client Sit Down

Questionnaires

Developing a prototype

Brainstorming with the team.

The brainstorming part is yet another crucial element. Understanding who are the stakeholders and what are the objectives of various stakeholders, as well as feasibility is what differentiates a good app from a great one.

As our CEO says "understand the project better = build it better."

Our Developers Earn Certified Magento Developer Certificate

It doesn’t work IF you want to offer a specific functionality that is not browser based

There are some specific set of functionalities that you might want to offer your target users, which simply cannot be accessed through a browser. In such cases RWD is a waste of time, and a mobile app can be your answer. There is no real point in making an expensive investment in RWD, when you can put in this money in a mobile app that can offer your better returns on investment.

Responsiveness works IF a large number of users will access your website from their mobile devices

We have mentioned that the number of mobile web users will surpass desktop internet users very soon, but this doesn’t mean your target audience is gung-ho about accessing your website through their mobile devices. Make sure this is the case before you choose to go with responsive web design. If you are reasonably sure that the majority of your target audience will access your website through mobile web, RWS make perfect business sense.
