Ionic vs. Swiftify

- Inexpensively and rapidly creating multi-device (Android, iPhone) native apps. - Quick ramp-up time allows for rapid development. - Open source tools can be used to develop. - Lightweight code-based can be easily shared and developed in a team environment. - Use of React, Vue, and angular leverages well-known coding and application design frameworks that are transportable.

It is recommended to use Swiftify in any situation that requires iOS development because even if you develop just in Swift or just in Objective-C, it could be helpful for researching and investigating purposes. Additionally, if you need to convert big quantities of code from Objective-C to Swift, this tool will optimise that work. It will not translate a whole class of 2000 lines perfectly, but after converting it you can review the code and modify the lines that have not been properly converted, making you save more than the 50% of the time in that case. I've not been able to test it properly as I only used the trial version and it is really limited.

• Nice command line interface for repetitive development and deployment tasks.
• Realtime preview (in web browser) during development.
• Easy to update and keep current (open source) via command line.
• Provides nice set of mobile widgets for consistency across devices.

• Helps to prevent redoing the whole code.
• Sometimes it is hard to find the exact command of Obj-C in swift.
• It helped me to learn more :)

• Slightly better documentation when it comes to command line build troubleshooting.
• Increased widget library (even though it's much improved today).
• Native chart/graphing widgets.

• Sometimes the conversion doesn't make much sense. The Swift conversion doesn't compile, or is not optimized.

I don't have any problems with the platform. I like that their email responses are fast.

Android Studio

• Busy
• Confusing
• Marginal IDE
• Large footprint
• Single device development

IonicFramework

• Lean, no IDE needed
• Web browser preview
• Multi-device development
• Scripting of build packages for deployment

There's not much to compare - we haven't found any proprietary like it. Existing OpenSource solutions are unmaintained and Swiftify supports the latest versions of Swift.

• The ability to create a mobile app quickly by a single developer (saving $20K).
• Increased customer satisfaction.
• Avoids outsourcing costs of $10k-$20k.

• For now the impact has been small, considering that I used the trial version, it was helpful for small conversions. Summarising: Saving time on researching process
