The road is not straight
UX is a journey, but there’s no clear destination
There are many different paths
The journey is never done

The road is bumpy
No matter which strategic decision you make
You’ll hit bumps
Unsatisfied users
Difficulty supporting new tech
Dead ends

You don’t want to maintain multiple
app versions
Making the right choice
There is an abundance of mobile solutions
Each with specific characteristics
You can’t use all of them
How do you choose?

Frontend strategy
Multiple device types
You don’t want to write a version for each device type
Multiple screen sizes
You don’t want to write a version for each screen size
Native is best
Yes, but Web-apps are getting better, and so are browsers
17
Frontend strategy
Combine the best of both worlds
Native access to sensors
Native access to offline databases and files
Platform independence of web-apps
Central version management of web-apps
Available skills for web-development
Hybrid web
