解决方案描述

Gianthouse is specialized in providing customized mobile development service using hybrid development framework, namely React Native. The mobile app developed using hybrid framework is operable on both iOS and Android, that are the most commonly used operating systems of mobile device. This reduces the development cost of mobile apps significantly as only one app that can fit into two operating systems is developed, instead of developing two native apps separating for iOS and Android.


In a product development cycle, we first collect and discuss the requirements with users, and then design the user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) for the application. Afterwards, we start to implement the software and run sprint cycles to build and test the app. Once the development is completed, the project will be launched and move to maintenance phase.


In addition, Gianthouse adopts a mixture of waterfall and agile approach as development methodology. Agile approach is used in software development to promote velocity and adaptability, since the benefits of such approach is that adjustments can be made along the product development cycle rather than following a strict waterfall path. One of the aims of an agile approach is to reduce the development costs and shorten the prototyping process.

使用例子

Given the popularity of mobile device, mobile applications can be applied to different areas according to the user need. One of Gianthouse’s project, called Praise-HK, is a smart city mobile application that we collaborate with Hong Kong University of Science and Technology for providing real-time and forecast air quality and health risk information in Hong Kong at street-level.


The app allows admin user to collect information, such as daily route, preferences and health information from users. The information collected will be analyzed by admin user in the backend. With the use of hybrid development framework, the development cost and time required are reduced significantly. Development cost is lowered by half, since only one mobile app is developed instead of two. Along the development process, prototypes are released more frequently, and the result is lowering time-to-market of the app.
