              Top 5 App development platforms 

App development is the act or process by which a mobile app is developed for mobile devices such as personal digital assistants, enterprise digital assistants, or mobile phones.

 The platform can refer to the type of processor (CPU) or other hardware on which a given operating system or application runs, the type of operating system on a computer, or the combination of the type of hardware and the type of operating system running on it. 

 Application software can be written to depend on the features of a particular platform—either the hardware, operating system, or virtual machine it runs on. The Java platform is a virtual machine platform that runs on many operating systems and hardware types and is a common platform for software to be written for.




 

Given below are the top 5 app development platform-

  1. iOS- (formerly iPhone OS) is a mobile operating system created and developed by Apple Inc. exclusively for its hardware. It is the operating system that powers many of the company's mobile devices, including the iPhone and iPod Touch; it also powered the iPad until the introduction of iPadOS, a derivative of iOS, in 2019. It is the world's second-most widely installed mobile operating system, after Android. It is the basis for three other operating systems made by Apple: iPadOS, tvOS, and watchOS. It is proprietary software, although some parts of it are open source under the Apple Public Source License and other licenses.

  2. Cross-platform software-In computing, cross-platform software (also multi-platform software or platform-independent software) is computer software that is implemented on multiple computing platforms. Cross-platform software may be divided into two types; one requires individual building or compilation for each platform that it supports, and the other one can be directly run on any platform without special preparation, e.g., the software is written in an interpreted language or pre-compiled portable bytecode for which the interpreters or run-time packages are common or standard components of all platforms.

 

  1. BlackBerry- is an open platform that provides a variety of development languages and runtimes designed to fit your skills. Your choice will be based on a combination of familiarity, possibly having a pre-existing codebase as well as the target devices you wish to serve.


  1. Symbian- is a discontinued mobile operating system (OS) and computing platform designed for smartphones. Symbian was originally developed as a proprietary software OS for PDAs in 1998 by the Symbian Ltd. consortium. Symbian OS is a descendant of Psion's EPOC and was released exclusively on ARM processors, although an unreleased x86 port existed. Symbian was used by many major mobile phone brands, like Samsung, Motorola, Sony Ericsson, and above all by Nokia. It was also prevalent in Japan by brands including Fujitsu, Sharp, and Mitsubishi. As a pioneer that established the smartphone industry, it was the most popular smartphone OS on a worldwide average until the end of 2010—at a time when smartphones were in limited use—when it was overtaken by iOS and Android. It was notably not as popular in North America.

  2. Perl- is a family of two high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming languages. "Perl" refers to Perl 5, but from 2000 to 2019 it also referred to its redesigned "sister language", Perl 6, before the latter's name was officially changed to Raku in October 2019.

The caves were built during the 600 to 1000 CE. The caves had deities, idols, paintings which portray the culture and strong foundation of basically three religions Hindu, Buddhist, and Jains.  HISTORY It is difficult to specify the name of the architecture or those hardworking workers behind the building of this series of 34 magnificent rock-cut temples.  But by analyzing the  17 Hindu caves, 12 Buddhist and five Jain caves with their artwork such as wall paintings, idols, carvings, etc it can be concluded that each religion had its own construction period. Basically divided into three parts- early Hindu period -  550 to 600 CE,  Buddhist period - 600 to 730 CE, The last phase, of the Jain and Hindu, was from 730 to 950 CE. In total there are 100 temples out of that only 34 caves ...
