Hi Guys,
I am not clear with some of the features listed. Notably 'Accepted on App Stores', 'Native Code Access' and 'Developer Collaboration'. Does the earliest imply that the developed apps are specifically accepted on the Apple App store or on the internal app store managed by enterprise? Don't have any clue about Native Code Access, I understand it is related to native apps? Developer Collaboration is a tricky one too. Is it allowed only by RhoMoble and Pyxis? Please, someone clarify it to me. Could also send a pm to my email miginis@homtail.com
Cheers
Marius

How to create Component-preload.js files for Fiori Applications

-
1           Creating Component-preload.js file 1.1       Use of Component-preload.js: Component-preload.js is a minified , obfuscated and uglified file that gathers all the sources of an application to minimize server requests and drastically reduce the application size.

Mobile apps, designed to run on smartphones like Android or iOS-based phones, are ubiquitous in today’s enterprises. Every enterprise wants to build one or needs one. However, not everyone knows what it costs, or the efforts involved in building it. In this blog, we will attempt to decode the costs & efforts involved in building an enterprise-grade mobile app. These apps are available through the native distribution platforms app stores such as Apple App Store, Google Play Store and other third-party app stores like Amazon Appstore or Samsung's Galaxy Apps. Some enterprises have internal app stores for employees and do not distribute the apps via the native app stores. Based on the number and complexity of desired features, a decent enterprise-grade mobile app’s development and deployment cost anywhere between $25,000 to $500,000. This cost includes the effort of developing a single app for one platform: iOS or Android. The app development cost and effort include the fol
