What framework does OutSystems Mobile use for UI components?

OutSystems Mobile primarily utilizes a hybrid mobile framework based on HTML5 and JavaScript for its User Interface components. This approach allows developers to leverage the versatility of web technologies while still enabling the application to be deployed as a native app on mobile devices.

Using HTML5 and JavaScript as the foundation enables the creation of rich and interactive user interfaces that can function seamlessly across different mobile platforms such as iOS and Android. This hybrid model also benefits from a single codebase, significantly simplifying the development process and making it easier to maintain and update applications.

The structure of a hybrid framework takes advantage of web-based development but wraps it in a native shell, providing access to device capabilities while maintaining a high level of performance and consistency across various devices. This is particularly useful in OutSystems, where quick development cycles and deployment efficiencies are critical.

Other choices suggest frameworks or applications that do not align with the mobile context or lack the flexibility needed for OutSystems' objectives, which focuses on creating accessible and maintainable mobile applications.
