Current technological advances and the growth of smart applications and services require the development of multi-platform mobile applications. Writing software to run on multiple computing platforms can involve a large amount of duplicate effort. This duplicate effort can take the form of re-implementing the business logic in a different language, re-implementing the user interface or, in many cases, re-implementing both for each platform. There are many crossplatform frameworks to help reduce or eliminate this effort, but they make compromises on performance or user experience. Hence, this paper presents a cross-platform framework whose goal is to reduce this compromise by aiming to minimise platform-specific code, but not eliminate it. Using this method will allow all platforms to have a featurerich, native interface, with most of the code, including user interface code, contained in a cross-platform library used by all platforms. Hence, this work establishes a framework for developing cross-platform GUI applications, involving the design and development of a common library as well as translation libraries for iOS, Android, and Windows. This developed framework has been successfully applied to the implementation of a real-world application for smart lift services.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
