As an open source platform to easily build enterprise web apps for cloud and mobile , the upcoming Joget Workflow v6 will have a dual pronged focus: User Experience (UX), and App Maintainability and Performance. Following the previous article which offered a sneak peek at what to expect, here’s a more detailed look at what’s to come.

The Future of App Development: Touch to Build?

The Present How does software get built today? The image of software engineers hunkering down over their computers is a familiar sight and is representative of how things work today. Building software and apps is the domain of experienced computer programmers and coders, of which there is a real shortage. This global phenomenon (check out a finding from the European Commission , for example) is not new, and will only get worse.

As we passed the 150,000 download milestone for the open source Community Edition earlier this year along with the release of Joget Workflow v5 , we reflect upon the vision for the product as we work towards developing the next major release. As an application development platform, the main value proposition can be summarized into 3 key principles: Simplicity, Flexibility and Openness.

Just a web browser is required to build and maintain apps anytime, anywhere.
