Progressive Web Apps: Apple App Store, Google Play Store, It Was Nice Knowing You

Image
Is the end coming for the Apple App Store and Google Play Store? The title is obviously an exaggeration, but in all seriousness, the time has come for a new wave of mobile technology to come to the fore. In 2018, Twitter announced that it has started offering its mobile PWA as its main site . PWA? What’s that? Progressive Web Apps (PWA) is the future of mobile apps and the web, pushed by heavyweights in the industry especially Google. With features such as adding to home screen, offline support, push notifications and more, a PWA offers a user experience approaching that of a native mobile app. Here’s how a PWA works. Imagine you have a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) app that is also PWA compliant. You just need to visit the app using a normal URL in your mobile browser. If you have visited the app more than once, the PWA will prompt you to “Add to Home Screen”, which is basically equivalent to “installing” the app. Add to Home Screen Prompt Once installed, the

Application Performance Management Features in the Joget Platform

Introduction to Application Performance Management (APM) In this digital transformation era, software applications serve an increasingly vital role to help businesses change how they operate and compete. With such dependency, application performance thus becomes a critical factor in ensuring that a business’ bottom line is not affected. For example: Operational performance issues with critical business applications can result in loss of revenue and cause customers or prospects to possibly abandon the business and go elsewhere.  Downtime or slow response in a customer facing application would result in a negative customer experience, and significantly impacting customer satisfaction. Interruptions or slowdowns in internal applications would result in loss of employee productivity and increased support costs.  This is where application performance management (APM) comes in. APM is the monitoring and management of performance and availability of software applications. Managin

How to Visually Build Apps with Joget and Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform

EDITOR’S NOTE October 2020 : This post was originally published in January 2019 for OpenShift 3.11. Please refer to the Knowledge Base for the latest instructions to deploy Joget DX on OpenShift 4.5. Red Hat OpenShift is a container application platform that brings Docker and Kubernetes to the enterprise. As a cloud native computing platform, OpenShift allows teams to automate the build, deployment, and management of applications. They can focus on developing apps without worrying about the underlying infrastructure, whether on physical/virtual servers, or on public/private/hybrid cloud environments. The move to cloud native computing is a key segment of many organization’s digital transformation strategy. However, that is only a part of the equation because a major gap that has to be addressed is in building the applications and automating business processes. A lot of application development today still utilizes traditional coding, so the inherent complexities along wi

Blockchain Made Simple: No-Code Apps with Hyperledger Fabric and Joget

EDITOR’S NOTE March 2020 : This post was originally published in January 2019 for Hyperledger Fabric 1.3, and has been updated for Hyperledger Fabric 2.0 . 1. Introduction Joget is an open source low-code/no-code application platform for faster, simpler digital transformation. In this article, we will look at using a no-code approach to integrating blockchain technology, specifically a Hyperledger Fabric network, into a full-fledged web application. 1.1 Blockchain and Digital Ledger Technology (DLT) In recent times there have been many predictions on blockchain technology revolutionizing the world , transforming everything from banking to supply chains and even government. Even if you are not familiar with the term, you would probably have heard of the rise of cryptocurrency like Bitcoin which utilizes blockchain technology. So what exactly is a blockchain? To start, it’s best to understand a broader term called digital ledger technology (DLT) . DLT is simply a decentra
