If you’re an enterprise application developer building complex applications – especially those that are familiar with with object-oriented design and engineering – then you’ve probably faced your fair share of complicated problems that are all too often dismissed as the norm when it comes to app dev.
Issues like browser compatibility, standards support, security fixes, or compatibility problems are just a few of the roadblocks you’ve likely encountered (or will), all of which can lead to downstream maintenance nightmares.
Additionally, a survey of over 1,300 development professionals shows:
- 79% expect desktop applications to be in use for three years or more, including more than half of desktop apps (51%), that will be around for more than five years
- Mobile follows the same trend with 62% of tablet apps and 59% of smartphone apps expected to have a lifespan of more than three years
The maintenance burden on development teams over this period of time should be taken into consideration.
Sencha Ext JS Can Help
When using Ext JS, developers build their application using standard APIs to ensure the application operates as intended, automatically activating any tweaks needed for the runtime environment, and allows developers to use adaptive and responsive design techniques from the same code base, across a broad range of browsers and devices.
Why You Should Try Ext JS:
- Ext JS provides a very broad range of widgets and over 115 components, all of which are designed and tested for compatibility and have no external dependencies. By covering so much functionality with a single dependency, Ext JS greatly reduces compatibility risk.
- All components are developed to a consistent architecture under the same standards of abstraction, documentation, comments, and coding style. This consistency helps developers minimize mental context switches.
- Sencha provides tools that offer rapid prototyping, debugging, testing, theming, and more, and are accessible from the command line, IDE, or streamlined GUI. In other words, developers get access to the right tools from the right environment – enabling consistent workflows, improved automation, and higher productivity.
- Development teams get professional documentation and support over well-defined maintenance lifetimes for each release, so they can better plan their own upgrade schedule and get expert assistance, if needed.
