Chupamobile Survey shows that 50% of Mobile developers use 3rd parties Components to build their Apps

by admin_chupa

First of all a special thanks to all mobile developers who participated in our survey.

The sample of the survey was composed both by Chupamobile users and developers belonging to different professional networks and development groups. In both cases over 60% of the responses came from ‘independent Developers’, less than 40% by Developers working full time for an organization. Over 65% of the respondents develop for mobile since at least 1 year.

Some Key points from the results show that:
- Most respondents develop for more than one platformlanguage. iOS and android account for over 50% of the responses, but Html5 is growing very fast and accounts for over 16% of the answer, as well as Windows Mobile (9%).

- Almost 50% of the respondents have already used 3rd party components into their mobile applications. Another 30% plans to use them for their next project. The times of developing an app from scratch are over and developers want to re-use and buy already made components.
