In a professional app development company, the complete development process includes: product development requirements analysis (helping customers systematically sort out business processes and confirm requirements) and UI design (interface design, interactive architecture, style and color matching, etc.). ), application development (code development, function debugging), system testing (function testing, stress testing, etc. ), app trial operation (trial operation in actual environment, customer product training) and product launch.
(1) product demand analysis
In the process of contacting customers, we found that some entrepreneurs are ready to start developing apps after they have ideas or ideas. When they really enter the R&D stage, they often delay a lot of time because the model is unclear, so customers need to have a clear understanding of the business model of app in the product demand analysis stage, so that the development process can be smooth.
In the demand analysis stage, the competitive environment in which app is currently located also needs to be understood. When choosing an app development company, we often consider whether the app development company has development experience in the same industry, so as to provide some reference opinions when analyzing competition. Knowing the potential competitors and competitive environment can predict in advance whether we are entering a relatively saturated market or a market with certain space.
(2)UI design
UI design is to plan customers' needs and ideas and turn them into a tangible product. It needs to consider the beauty of the interface and the friendliness of the user experience. User experience is how to make users feel better when using products or services, while the interface focuses on the usability of the interface, whether the product is convenient to use, the use efficiency is not high, and the user satisfaction is good. In UI design, the user interface is primary, while the user experience is secondary.
(3) Research and development stage
After the UI design completes the corresponding design work and is confirmed by the customer, it enters the development stage. At the beginning, the system architect or project manager will control and refine the entire app project, give solutions according to specific application scenarios, establish development specifications and core architecture, sort out technical details, and arrange corresponding development technicians. After the front-end and back-end development of app is completed, according to the functional data processing situation sorted out by demand analysis, a reasonable database table structure is established, the data algorithm is optimized, and the data processing efficiency is improved, so as to ensure the security, stability and accuracy of data in the application process.
(4) Lifting test
If it is multi-port development, then the test needs multi-model synchronous test, including app performance test, content test, function test, stress test and so on. The bugs tested will be handed over to the developer for modification and improvement, and then passed the test again and submitted to the customer for acceptance.
(5)app release
What we need to pay attention to in the process of app release is that there is no violation of relevant state regulations and there is no infringement. If there is any charging content, it is necessary to clearly prompt, confirm the publishing platform, and prepare relevant certificate qualification materials required by different platforms.
(6)app is online
If you go online on the IOS platform, it usually takes a week to go online because of the strict review. If you go online to Android platform and Wap app, you can go online directly. After the launch, the general enterprise will hand over the app products to the operation and maintenance personnel. At this point, the process in the app development company is over.
