2022: Gesture Interpreter Development
On January 31, 2023, RooX announced that it had improved its PWA application development service by developing an interpreter of gestures specific to mobile devices. It will help businesses release progressive web applications with native UX. Thanks to the interpreter, users will again be able to "swipe," "scroll," use drag & drop, long presses and other gestures familiar to everyone.
A surge in interest in PWA applications arose in 2022 amid the threat of removing applications from Russian companies from stores. PWA technology allows you to quickly package a finished site into an application that resembles a mobile one. However, simply adding the PWA manifesto to an adaptive layout site, it is impossible to get a full-fledged mobile UX, in which companies invest for the sake of transactionality.
In a mobile application, a person uses a lot of various gestures to perform operations. In PWA applications, by default, gestures are processed by the built-in mobile browser engine. And, firstly, in it the set of processed gestures is extremely limited, and secondly, transitions occur between pages, and not screens.
RooX specialists analyzed these features. For some gestures, their processing in the mobile browser had to be blocked, the reaction to some was redefined, and, of course, it was necessary to add the user's usual reaction to many additional gestures: a variety of long and fractional presses, calling pop-up information panels (the so-called "curtain"), flipping to the right and left, up and down, and so on.
Thus, a standard library for interpreting gestures characteristic of a UX mobile application was formed. Library code is optimized to provide high interface responsiveness.
PWA applications created using this library do not differ from native mobile applications for iOS or Android in terms of UX. Thus, the business can offer customers the usual work experience, and due to this - to maintain transactionality and user base and continue to actively promote their services.
Earlier, RooX supplemented its PWA development service with a catalog of biometrics scenarios for different OCs. It includes scripts for binding, authentication, signing operations, working offline.
