A Guide to Android Application Development Process


Every day, thousands of mobile applications are submitted to Apple and Google. What we are concerned with in this collateral is professionally-built business apps. In this segment, there are a maybe a few hundred that stand out. And if being in the elite group of apps is your goal, then here is a guide we have compiled after delivering more than 800 apps for both OS platforms. In this article, I will concentrate on the Android application development process to direct your attention to what goes into the development of a great app.
Every app requirement that we come across has different requirements and different functionality. However, the Android app development process is a sum-mean of all stages that go into designing, creating, developing and post-deployment of the app. Hire Android app developers to create performance-oriented Android applications.
Here are the guidelines for Android application development process:
Ideation
This might sound a bit preachy, but every great app starts out with an idea. If you have an idea in your mind to create an app, then look at the potential solutions that the app is answering. Additionally, look at the problems that you might face when building the app. It’s a sort of an academic exercise, but we assure you that it is well worth it.
2 questions that you might ask yourself are:
 “Can the app solve _____ problem?”
and
 “Are there options out there that my app can outdo?”
If you can answer these two questions constructively, you are halfway to your idea becoming a reality. And since you are reading this content piece, you must obviously know where your target audience resides, i.e., on Android. In case you haven’t decided why Android trumps iOS, here are the top 10 reasons to choose Android OS platform for mobile application development.
The next thing on your plate should be how your app can solve the problem itself, and how better you can solve it in comparison to other options that are out there. The best option is to immerse yourself in understanding the solution that you want to place out there as an Android app. With this step, you can start your journey with the strategy to make an Android app.
Android App Strategy
Competition is the name of the game at this stage. With strategy, you will need to create a plan, a sort of a blueprint to give your idea some structure. Look at your competition. Look at the number of downloads they have garnered. Look at the reviews in the Google App Store to know where you will need to plug those holes.
Plus, it would be great if you can understand the company history of your competition, to give you a good idea of their applied strategy. See if you can find insights into the challenges they faced and how (if) they overcame it.
The best option though is to partner with the best Android app development company. This way they can do a SWOT analysis (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats). For instance, HokuApps’ Android app development process includes a SWOT analysis as a part of their Android app development process.
Android App Wireframing
A wireframe is a blueprint of the app. Not specifically the UX of the app, though this may be a part of the wireframe. Wireframing will structure the app from end-to-end. It will include app features, tools options that may be needed for integration (like social media, ERP/CRM software and such) into the app, specifications, and feasibility of the app. This makes sure that the idea that your Android app development company are in sync with your business strategy.
Android App Design
The front-end of the Android app development process is the first thing that your users will judge your app on. This is the stage where Android interface design team will work on. To make sure that all bases are covered, the team will check and recheck all specifications based on the wireframing. The design is a stage where continues feedback with your Android app development partner is the most necessary.
With HokuApps, in the first 2-3 weeks, you will be delivered with mock-ups of the app. All this is for free in our risk-free three-week trial. This offer is an Android app development service by HokuApps that is not featured by our competitors.
Android App Development
The HokuApps Android app development process offers apps made-on-demand with reusable codes. At this stage, our Android app developers will concentrate on the user interface (UI) aspect of the app, where several techniques are deployed simultaneously to code the usability of the app.
As the app is done and tested, HokuApps will deliver the app for feedback. And as the Android app development process is based on a low-code approach, iterations can be made at any stage of the Android app development process, which is an impossible approach in case of creating apps from scratch on a traditional linear platform.
Android app developers at this stage will include features like navigation, SQLite, use of intent, list view, navigation and collating all data silos to perform as one single unit.
Android App Testing
The HokuApps Android app development process includes regular checks by our QA team at every stage. Though most of the Android app development process is automated, we like to ensure that there are zero chances of bugs in the software. Our Android app development service includes this feature as a part of the overall process.
Deployment and Market Submission
As you give us the green light to go ahead with the final app for submission, HokuApps Android app development company will submit the app to Google Play Store for approval. We will create an account with Google gives you full rights to the app, which include rights to the software. This generally takes less than two days. The major reason for this being that the Android app development is based on guidelines provided by Google.
Android App Post-Deployment
Just creating the app is just 90% of the Android app development process. The rest is post-deployment. With our affordable subscription-based service, you will need to pay only for software upgrades (based on Google’s software patch upgrades) and the cost of hosting the software on the Cloud server.
HokuApps’ Android app development services will take care of all your issues henceforward in our subscription-based model. And if you need to scale your app for more features and such, you don’t have to go through the whole gamut of Android app development process again. Our Android app developers will take care of it for you.[Source]-https://www.hokuapps.com/blogs/guide-android-application-development-process/

Why, when and how to return Stream from your Java API instead of a collection

Introduction Collections are basic and commonly used data structures. Programmers from the beginning of their career learn how to use them to receive, process and return data. Getting more advanced in Java programming, they find stream() method to convert a collection into a stream and learn how to process data using some of the stream’s useful methods like map, flatMap or reduce. They could also notice that other APIs in Java return a stream too e.g. String.lines(), Matcher.results(), Files.find(), Random.ints(). If you have experience with consuming streams but haven’t produced them yet, this article is for you. I’m going to show you some scenarios where streams can be very convenient and examples on how to use them. Additionally, I shortly mention error handling and resource management. The article is based on standard Java library java.util.stream. It’s related neither to reactive streams nor to other implementation of streams like e.g. Vavr. Also, I’m not going to cover a...

What is Kubernetes?

Kubernetes (also known as k8s or “kube”) is an open source container orchestration platform that automates many of the manual processes involved in deploying, managing, and scaling containerized applications. In other words, you can cluster together groups of hosts running Linux containers, and Kubernetes helps you easily and efficiently manage those clusters. Kubernetes clusters can span hosts across on-premise, public, private, or hybrid clouds. For this reason, Kubernetes is an ideal platform for hosting cloud-native applications that require rapid scaling, like real-time data streaming through Apache Kafka. Kubernetes was originally developed and designed by engineers at Google. Google was one of the early contributors to Linux container technology and has talked publicly about how everything at Google runs in containers. (This is the technology behind Google’s cloud services.) Google generates more than 2 billion container deployments a week, all powered by its ...

Best way to learn Java programming

Having said that I am writing this post dedicated to all my young (or I should say beginner) fellows who want to attain a certain level of proficiency in java technology and somewhere would like to take my advice on this. Keep in mind that if you do not like the way to learn java, I am proposing in this post, then just ignore me. Period. OR better, suggest me what you think is the better way to learn java fast or easily. Here I am assuming the people reading this post will be, who are very new to language, so I will start by listing first thing first. Make sure you have prepared your Java development environment ready i.e. You have installed JDK/JRE and you have an IDE like Eclipse. 1) Learn the language basics This is the first step for very obvious reason. If you don’t know the basics then you will never know either what to do next or what you are doing wrong. Initially, I do not expect from you to become the master of all java basic stuffs like keywords, core concepts o...
