Felgo vs. Swiftify

It is a very good tool for making all types of mobile and web applications once you know how to use it. It allowed us to realize several application concepts, such as currency converter, pregnancy monitoring, QR code flash for product evaluation. No need for native SDKs, Build in and Install from Cloud with the Felgo Build Server.

For me as a picky person I never used the file convertor but for a small portion of code, it is good. With the classes that have more than one initializer, it got confusing and I had to dig to find the exact issue to fix.

• Ready available solutions for all platform mobile app development.
• Live hot reloading of UI and other advance controls by Felgo implemented in Qt.
• Using Qt underneath provides an opportunity to developers to use it in all kind of sectors like embedded devices, mobile apps, desktop apps, games etc.

• Put in your Objective-C code, select the version of Swift language to convert, click convert. That's all!
• Swiftify is now creating a platform to convert Objective C to #C, something that can help for different development projects platforms.
• Swiftify offers a few free converts to try to show you the power of it. Their price for a subscription plan is really good for big projects.

• QML component / C++ code with hot reload feature.

• It lacks general performance and availability
• It doesn't handle Objective-C macro well
• Overall conversion speed expected to be much better

I am happy with the constant feedback that I am receiving from the team. Although most of it is marketing related, there are some interesting and valuable materials that they have been pushing to ease my learning.

The quality of the documentation and the ease of use may be some important values to take into account.

We believe that the agility that we have acquired until now for developing apps for our business cases give this framework an important lead.

As with any product, Felgo has some edges to it, but from our past experiences evaluating "code once, deploy everywhere" platforms, we were really surprised at how fast the team went from exploring, into playing and presenting prototypes in very little time.

The dev cycle is really fast as I can get an almost instantaneous feedback on the changes that I make. And it is refreshing to see how I am able to target several platforms at once.

The javascript plus QML combination made it really easy to pick up for me and I am certain sure that many devs can migrate from Web only into multi-platform in a fast manner.

And there is also the possibility to implement C++ code if the need arises to support and bridge native libraries.

There are constant upgrades to improve the conversion.

As I was already a C++ and Qt developer, Felgo was obvious choice over other tools. Also its cross-platform solutions for mobile apps and Qt's ability to provide cross-platform tool for all other devices makes this perfect choice.

Swiftify tries to convert the code even if the code can not be executed in a real situation. I chose Swiftify because most of the times you just need to convert one line, one method... That of course, it is using and used by other code that you didn't add in the conversion code, but you just need to convert that for now. In this situation, Swiftify converts the code, other ones such as iSwift will report an error in the code and will not convert it.

• Development cost became low
• Easy to learn
• created well performed cross platform application

• good ROI, saves a lot of time.
