The Flutter framework: our developers are still looking for the big flaws!

Blue Soft has designed a member networking application for the CCI France International network, using the recently launched Flutter framework, powered by Google. With Flutter, hybrid development, hitherto unconvincing, has clearly reached a new level, in terms of performance and simplicity, as well as aesthetics. The Flutter framework at the cutting edge of hybridization! Released at the end of 2018, the Google Flutter framework is already in version 2.8, and the prognosis is eminently good. Just look at our own developers Blue Soft and the enthusiasm they're expressing for this technology. Easy to use, Flutter is all about beauty. It has forged a place of choice in the hearts of our teams, especially and strangely, among those under 30. In our article on how to make a career in development, we recommend the usefulness of an early focus on a particular technology. The Flutter framework, for example, can be a very good choice for an early career. The Flutter framework doesn't just appeal to our young developers.

The user experience must be at the center of the CIO strategy

As a result of the digital transformation, the IT department's schedule is now very busy. Between the maintenance of existing IT systems and the development of new services, they are not short of work. While remaining available to their employees, they work within a framework constrained by management objectives or a defined budget. In the Build or Run phases as well as in the daily demands, a common thread emerges: the UX (or user experience). Like a leitmotiv, the UX guides the construction of each new brick. In the B2C applications domain, when UX became widespread in the developers' community, these applications became more fluid, easier to use and more powerful in order to meet consumers' needs. However, employees do not always benefit from powerful and versatile tools, just like their jobs. One of the keys to a successful digital transformation is therefore to focus on the development of business applications that are sufficiently mature to optimize the employee experience. The sooner IT Departments achieve this, the further they will be able to project their organization into the next world. In this context, the development of user-oriented business applications is a top priority. The benefits inherent to [...]

To achieve this, APIs are essential, as they provide an interface between all these programs. What is an API? An API is an intermediary between two applications. In concrete terms, it's a set of variables and protocols that enable simple data exchange with an existing application. Take a look at the 4 essential steps to choosing and implementing an API. Some examples of popular Microsoft APIs (source: RapidAPI) How does an API work? The API creates a connection with a software brick made up of a group of functionalities.
