Last week, I received an email inviting me to take a sneak peak at a press release that became public today. In the email, I was asked if I would be interested in hearing "news from new open source startup, DRUD Tech, founded by a couple of long-time Drupal contributors". According to the email, the company has been in "stealth mode" quietly working on their new product which is ready for launch this week.

The process of mobile-app development can be made faster by means of using some specialized tools online. Only smart app developers have the skills to make optimum utilization of these tools for mobile-app creation. Some of these tools are multifunctional in nature; and thus, they can be used for varied purposes.
Benefits of Using Tools for Mobile-app Development:
In combining the best components of mobile apps with the best components of websites, progressive Web apps (PWAs) offer a new, exciting way to engage with consumers via the mobile web. These PWAs function as websites that allow users to view them and interact with them as they would do with a mobile app. They do not have to be online in order to work, which enables them to be used at any time, on any device, and from any web browser. Each and every person who goes to a particular PWA will access the same version of the site. Plus, a PWA can be downloaded directly to their home screen, so users get to skip a visit to the app store on their device.
