NEFU OREH development will allow each user to create applications

A distinctive feature of Appio startup from OREH residents of North-Eastern Federal University is the ability to add changes to an already published application, including all users who downloaded it without updating it. Read the article about this on the official website of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation (in Russian).

The development team consists of six people. “The startup was made to facilitate its own development at the IT-Kitchen studio. At the beginning, an algorithm was created that made it possible to visualize the changes made in the code of the finished application. Then an engine was made for visualization of the components of React native framework, said Petr Vasiliev, the co-founder and lead programmer of the project.

The target audience of Appio is food delivery companies. “We were making our own CRM system for deliveries and realized that we had taken the wrong direction. Now we are returning the previous structure, making development as easy to use as possible, adding integrations with popular automation and accounting systems. The positive moment of wandering was the appearance of the Web Part "BeOnline.me", where there is only a showcase of products and everyone can create their own online store without a designer and programmer - absolutely free," said the developer.

Another advantage of the startup is ready client-server architecture of mobile applications, which allows the user not to think about the technical part. The third advantage is the native implementation of the mobile application on both platforms - iOS and Android. This means better application operation, smoother animation, better response.
