Generating apps from applets can be a lightweight and low-threshold way to develop apps, but it needs to be selected according to the specific situation. If the application needs to process a large amount of data or perform complex calculations, or needs to implement native-specific functions or interactive effects, you may need to choose other development methods.
Before the article starts, let's take a look at the frameworks and methods that are relatively easy to use and low-threshold to develop Apps on the market
React Native
React Native is a cross-platform mobile application development framework developed by Facebook, built on JavaScript and React. Its advantages are:
-
Cross-platform development is possible, and applications for iOS and Android platforms can be developed at one time;
-
The development speed is fast. Due to the use of JavaScript development, the development difficulty is relatively low, and the development speed is much faster than native development;
-
Good maintainability, clear code structure and easy maintenance.
Flutter
Flutter is a mobile application development framework launched by Google, based on the Dart language. Its advantages are:
-
Cross-platform development is possible, and applications for iOS and Android platforms can be developed at one time;
-
Excellent visual effects, Flutter's built-in control library and the way of designing with Sketch can easily achieve high-fidelity design;
-
The development speed is fast, due to the use of Dart language development, the development speed is relatively fast.
Weex
Weex is a JavaScript-based cross-platform mobile application development framework. It supports platforms such as iOS, Android, and Web, and can quickly build high-performance mobile applications. The core idea of Weex is to transform the component model of Vue.js into native components, thereby improving the performance and experience of App. Weex provides a wealth of basic components and APIs, allowing developers to more easily implement their own business logic.
The above should be familiar to everyone, but now there is still a very popular way to develop Apps, that is, "apps generated by small programs". Compared with the development of apps, the threshold of small program development is lower and it is easier to go online , and the advantages of "app generation by small programs" are also obvious. Cross-platform support can generate App codes for both iOS and Android platforms.
Today I will introduce to you a well-known "small program generation App" development tool in the technology circle, it is FinClip Builder
FinClip Builder is a small program IDE tool developed by Finclip
(Maybe you don’t know much about FinClip, so let’s briefly introduce it. FinClip is a small program container. Whether it’s a mobile app, or a computer, TV, car host, etc., after integrating the Finclip SDK, you can quickly get it. The ability to run small programs.) Should be able to understand
Then continue to introduce FinClip Builder. The interface of FinClip Builder is similar to the development tool of WeChat applet. It comes with debugging and real device preview, which is easy to use.
In this FinClip Builder, you can carry out secondary development on existing projects, expand functions and interfaces.
At the same time, it also supports one-click conversion of applets into apps, and can export existing applet codes as project files available in IOS and Android, and put them on the shelves in various application markets. Since the exported project file is automatically integrated with the FinClip SDK, it directly has the ability to run small programs. Later, you can continue to put more small programs on this APP and build your own small program ecology.
And FIDE also includes various extension plug-ins and interfaces (payment, face recognition, audio and video, OCR, etc.), developers can independently check the required support plug-ins, so as to enhance the native capabilities of the generated App.
The principle of converting a small program to an APP is actually to build the offline package of the small program into the Android/IOS project generated by FinClip Builder, and FinClip Builder supports online direct packaging into APK or IPA. The generated Android/IOS project helps us integrate the FinClip applet container SDK by default, and the API is opened by default when the APP is opened on the mobile phone.
To put it simply, FinClip Builder is actually used to generate a "shell" of an APP application. In this "shell", open the applet that has been put on the shelf. Therefore, before the applet is transferred to the APP, we need to have a "shell" that has been put on the shelf in the management background. Applets.
