Staying up to date with the latest trends in the mobile and web development industry is the only way to beat the competition. It is important for every developer to constantly upgrade the skills for thewholesome development of applications/websites. Here are the top 7 trends that you must look out for in 2018, to stay on top of your game.
Excellent Online Customer Support
The decline of customer support with rising popularity of a platform is evident with most of the modern-day websites. While focussing on expansion schemes, most of the websites do not lay emphasis on the customer support. If you want to have an edge over the competition today, you can install an app chat connector like Olark or Zendesk to your website to provide exceptional online customer support.
Single Page Websites
Navigation through an intuitive interface is becoming easier than ever. Instead of waiting for a new page to load, people prefer seeing all the pertinent information on a single page. Modern-day website developers have come up with a new way to display all the information on the website on a single web page while still managing to keep the navigation easy.
Hybrid Applications
Hybrid applications are quickly replacing the conventional native applications because of the wide scope of implementation. Instead, of building two different applications for different operating systems, a developer can easily build a singular hybrid application at a smaller cost and within a shorter period.
Notification for Websites
Websites now have the functionality to send you push notifications. With this functionality installed, you don’t need to send out mass email campaigns and receive a backlash from it. Instead, you can just send notifications about the new products as well as news on the website to people who are interested in receiving them. A one-time permission for sending these notifications out will easily let you know your target audience for automated push notifications.
Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality
Investment in virtual as well as augmented reality is quickly rising due to the incorporation of more powerful than ever smartphone processing chips. Compact smartphones can now easily provide the necessary juice to run complicated tasks of AR and VR with ease.
