About LongRange
The LongRange mobile app builder is based on two fundamental principles, the mobile app development and maintenance process must have a short time-to-market and a justifiable total cost of ownership, both vitally important to IBM i development sites constrained by restricted budgets, “never enough” time and ever-present resource limitations. Use your existing development tools, with your RPG, COBOL, or CL expertise and the LongRange mobile app builder you can deliver mobile apps to a user community quickly, and you can maintain and extend them with a minimum of time and cost. LongRange is a native mobile app, like Twitter, Skype, and Salesforce, downloaded from the appropriate App Store; it executes as a native app, very fast and with rock-solid reliability. It’s not a web app that runs on the server and it doesn’t rely on a web browser to deliver information to a mobile device. It does not rely on HTML, CSS, and JavaScript like a hybrid app.
