Part 5: The Initial stage of App Development

Greetings Everyone, today in this part I will be discussing the basics of app development and its initial phase(stage). Basically, app development goes through an SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle). The first step is the designing then comes planning then coding followed by testing and implementation. The final step is maintenance.

Today the topic is about first stage that is designing. This is the crucial phase of app development. All the functions and appearance of the app is finalized in this step. First of all, all the ideas and strategies are pitched down by the developer team. Then the designer comes to play. The designer uses UI/UX tools such as Adobe XD, Pencil, etc., and generates the UI of the app. A stack developer also uses these tools or uses a rough paper to pitch the idea and follow along.

This stage is most important because it introduces the main ideas and working strategies of the app. This lays out the map for the other following steps of the development. So, the main aim in this step should be to keep the design simple so that the user is attached to it and does not confuse the user. Also, the functional part should be short but effective to attract users.

Part 4: Why hashtag stands out

Greetings Everyone, It’s me again with another part of the series. In this part, I will be discussing the difference of Hashtag from other similar apps. As already mentioned, it falls under the category of social media. Other apps like Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat, etc. also fall under the same category, However Hashtag’s concept and its purpose make it unique from other similar apps.

First of all, talking about the concept, Hashtag’s main concept is to be beneficial to its user rather than making them addicted to social media. It is designed in a way that assists the user in their subject and also provides crucial information about the globe.

In today's world, things keep happening so fast that it's very difficult for us to keep track of the changes that are occurring day by day. This has led to a serious problem 'Generation Gaps'. Solving this issue has been the main goal of the app by keeping us up to date with the changes and providing a great platform for open ideas.

Unlike other apps that focus on sharing personal information and sharing data related to self, this app’s main purpose is to share and gain knowledge about any subject. Moreover, user’s privacy is kept secure and no information is shared with any other organization or advertising companies which is also a distinct feature.
