The technological languages for mobile

The technological languages for mobile

Digital Transformation

The mobile world has stopped being a novelty to become a necessity for many businesses. 95% of the population connects to the Internet through mobile, when choosing the device to stay connected, since 2017 mobile is the main tool and in 2020 is chosen by more than 60% (compared to 32% of the computer), we spend almost 5 hours a day “attached” to the mobile (up to 7.5 during confinement). It is clear, that the small device is a necessary hook for every business. In today’s post we will talk about the different technological languages for mobile and to create a mobile app. When you want to develop a mobile app, you have to choose which language to work in. First of all, it must be clear what the user will use the app for: A game (visual and interactive)? Finances (fast and simple)? Tourism and routes (geopositioning)?… and in turn, be clear what the company needs for its business model: Data? Security?… There are many parameters that must be understood before choosing the code of the app such as functionality, purpose, degree of interaction and security, etc. If you have a clear idea, you have an outline of the app at a functional level and you know the budget that accompanies the business model, we are ready to choose the technological language and start the development of the project. Main languages for mobile phones JavaScript (and all its frameworks) Java Kotlin Swift Objective-C C# (.Net) C/C+ (with Unity) Purpose of the main languages Multiplataform. In a world divided between Android and iOS, a JavaScript framework has appeared: React Native. This open source framework is used for all environments (it can support native Java and Swift code) and allows companies to dispense with the need to work in parallel with two squads of iOS and Android. This means that you only have to write a single version of your app, and it will work on iOS or Android. On the other hand, a native React programmer receives a substantially higher salary than other environments. Android environment. To develop Android apps the most used environment is Java although recently Kotlin is gaining much popularity. Kotlin is a static type language that increases productivity in development. In fewer lines of code, you get the same results. It is a modern language and still little known but that is clearly on the rise, especially since the Google Android team has recently announced that officially added support for this programming language. iOS envirnoment. The main current language for iOS is Swift. Although Objective-C was the original development language for iOS, Swift is an open source language with a very simple syntax and is also receiving great support from the iOs team (to identify errors, improve synchronization, etc.). Gaming. Everything that is gaming is usually related to C/C+ since Unity is a multiplafatorma video game engine among the most used but the most. DIY If you have a great business idea but you are short on budget, if your impetus and creativity have no limits and you prefer to lead your own project, Here’s how to learn how to program an app through the most complete and easy to learn technological languages: React Native: This framework has numerous libraries and resources and despite being based on the Java Script language its learning is not as complex as its enormous practicality as it is valid for iOS and Android. Ionic: Ionic is another JavaScript framework, just like React Native. The difference between React Native and Ionic, is that React behaves like a native app of the device and Ionic behaves like a Web but as an app. It can be useful if you already know JavaScript or Angular (web languages) and want to make a simpler app very quickly. C++. C-based, C++ offers superior performance and greater resistance to reverse engineering. All platforms support C++ coding. It has many basic templates although learning this language is not so easy. And if you are not convinced by the idea of programming in code, we present iBuild App. iBuild App uses a system of predefined templates that allow you to create complex mobile applications for both Android and iOs Try TalentFY in a Live Demo Try our recruiting platform without compromise.And if it doesn’t work for you, YOU DON’T PAY No small print.

Remote work benefits

Remote work: benefits for you and your employees

HHRR

Remote work is a very effective work trend for companies and very attractive for employees, so it is not surprising that it is increasingly implemented in companies around the world. At present, and especially because of the advent of COVID-19, this way of working has become a reality for many employees in Spain. But, although the arrival of the COVID-19 has marked a before and after in relation to remote work, this way of working brings a list of benefits that facilitate the organization of both the employee and the company. It should be noted that it is not always possible to practice it, not all jobs or all people can perform their tasks remotely, but many of them can, and the option of choosing teleworking should be considered whenever possible. It is estimated that more than 40% of the work performed in companies can be done remotely. But all this is best seen with data, so here are the 4 most important benefits of implementing remote work for you and your employees: Increased productivity: 85% of companies say that productivity has increased because of the greater labor flexibility thatr remote work brings. Improved work/life balance: 75% of employees who are working remotely say that working externally has improved their work/life balance. Stress reduction: 40% of teleworkers say they are usually “not stressed” during a normal workday. Improved employee morale and reduced turnover: Fifty-seven percent of employers say telework flexibility has improved morale and reduced turnover. In this article we discuss and develop the main advantages of implementing remote work for your business and your employees. Technological improvements One of the main reasons for the growth of this new work model is that nowadays both companies and employees have the necessary technological tools to carry out their tasks online and remotely. In this regard, internal communication tools, online collaboration platforms and social networks, which facilitate communication among employees, must be taken into account. Among them, from TalentFY We want to highlight Slack, which allows fluid communication with other colleagues and creates a feeling of proximity and Team Spirit; Google Drive, which allows several people to work on the same document; and Google Meet, ideal for conferences and meetings, and/or to deal with topics that are more complicated to work on via written message. Reconciliation The increase in telecommuting in Spain and the rest of the world is also closely related to the demands of workers, who are demanding solutions that allow them to better reconcile their work and family life. Responding to these pleas from workers, many companies have decided to allow their employees to work from home. This makes it easier for the employee to organize his day, not only with his work tasks, but also with his personal tasks and activities. Consequently, you will make your employees happier and feel freer, the 8-hour working day is over, if one of your employees is better off working from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm and then take a 2-hour break because he wants to attend some training courses, and then reconnect from 4:00 pm to 9:00 pm, why can’t he do it? As long as your employee keeps to the hours he/she has to work per day/week, it is very positive that you give him/her the freedom to organize himself/herself, and telecommuting makes it very easy. Increased productivity As mentioned above, it is important to note that companies have realized that telecommuting increases employee productivity, you may ask: why? Among other things, because workers can dedicate more time to their tasks than they end up devoting to them when they are in the office. In addition, it avoids the constant interruptions that are quite common in offices and reduces time wasted in meetings. According to the latest INE data, telecommuting can increase productivity by 5 to 25%. Cost reduction for companies and employees Companies have also realized that teleworking can lead to considerable cost reductions, since a physical location is not necessary, or at least not as large. In addition, companies save on per diems and travel expenses. For their part, there are many workers who do not yet have this type of incentive, in these cases they can also save on commuting and, more importantly, on time. And we must not forget that a good part of the day is wasted on the way to and from work. Better attitude All these benefits that we have been discussing and developing translate into a better attitude of workers, who see how their working conditions improve, can take care of their families, reduce their stress levels and have more energy. Thus, employees tend to be more motivated and involved with the company. And you: have you started to implement telecommuting as a result of COVID-19 or had you already done it before? What positive aspects have you and your employees gained by starting to work remotely? Try TalentFY in a Live Demo Try our recruiting platform without compromise.

The most widely used technological languages today

The most widely used technological languages today

Digital Transformation

Since the advent of the Internet, it has been innovating in the creation and propagation of new and more technological languages. In this article, we will try to summarize the main technological languages most used and why. As we have seen in previous articles as in The growth of the technology sector, the evolution of the IT sector itself is bringing innovation and improvement even in the languages and frameworks used. Since the creation of the first website with HTML, it has evolved in codes to optimize, facilitate and enhance its application in web environment. Worldwide, if you are interested in knowing which languages are most used you can check them in TIOBE index who update it every September. This index, therefore, reflects the current use of developments and does not reflect the volume of new code or the trend towards the future. To understand where we are going, the PYPL index, which measures the number of Google searches for tutorials. If you access, you can see that Python is clearly on the rise. It is for this reason that in today’s post we will talk about the main languages most used for the web in Spain and we will try to figure out why they are so used. Most commonly used languages in Spain Java. The most widely used technological language in Spain is Java. And it’s not a local issue but globally it’s also the most used language not only on the web but also in the mobile environment – although some say that the C environment has overcome it recently -. PHP. PHP is the second most used language. Although in the rest of the world it is used, its massive use in Spain is exceptional. .Net. The Microsoft environment remains vital in the web environment and especially on desktop. Currently, much of this code is still chosen for new developments using C#. Python. Python is being used increasingly thanks to its multitude of applications and clearly the trend is going to more and more. C/C++. This language is still one of the most used especially for the gaming world. Beyond applications in C that could go down, this code has born the entire iOS environment so it is widely used also in the mobile environment. The rise of Python Python is being used more and more thanks to the latest applications, it is widely used for Big Data, Artificial Intelligence, scientific research… Besides being such a versatile language, it responds very well to very voluminous and mathematically complex requests despite not being a compiled language. It is open source, has a simple syntax and its complexity comes more from the logic of the business model behind than from the language itself. It is a code that allows high scalability and powerful data management development. Despite not being among the 3 most used codes today, it has a clear upward trend and will probably continue to climb positions in terms of its use. Has a very powerful community, an excellent library support and for many is the most complete language that there is today. In addition, the Django and Flask frameworks allow easy web development. Many companies are migrating the core of their code to Python due to its high potential and many others are choosing this code as the main language for their new platform. The PHP world PHP is an open source that allows good communication between web and server. It is one of the most used languages when looking for stability and good performance. Unlike Python, PHP and Java have a multitude of frameworks and libraries to use. Here in Spain, after Java, the PHP code follows closely. There are 3 main reasons why PHP is so used in Spain: The entire WordPress and Drupal environment has generated an ecosystem of web pages made in a more agile way and by hands not so specialized in IT. WordPress is a CMS where more programmers are initiated into web programming, especially when they come from the marketing and design side. It has frameworks like Laravel, Symfony and Codeigniter. With extensive libraries and very simple to use. In Spain there is the particularity that in the initial boom of Start Ups (Privalia, Softonic, eDreams…) was one of the most used languages thus creating a “school” of programmers who have developed powerful skills. Currently, these same professionals are in CTO positions of different companies and choose for their platforms languages that they master. The Java world Since its beginnings in the mid 90’s, Java has burst in with great force. This is the most popular code among large organizations. It has a simpler learning curve than other languages. It is a robust code and being a compiled language, makes it very secure and stable. It also offers a very high level of performance with advantageous features such as memory release. It is a multi-platform language that works on virtually any device. Another positive aspect of Java is that it allows you to create applications and processes on multiple devices in a very comfortable way. It is widely used for Mobile developments, but also for IoT.
