Why Mobile Studio?

Crosslight is an advanced development toolset that lets you build cross-platform native apps with a single codebase written in a single language and a single common API. Whether you’re targeting the Windows platform, or the wildly popular iOS and Android platforms, Crosslight makes cross-platform mobile development so easy, simple and enjoyable.

Crosslight offers a multitude of unprecedented features that change the way you build cross-platform mobile apps such as application code reuse, comprehensive mobile services, amazing user experiences and native performance just to a few. It is obvious that Crosslight will significantly improve productivity, reduced development time and cost by up to 66%.

Crosslight leverages cutting-edge design patterns such as MVVM and service abstraction at its core to allow loosely-coupled messaging to the view platform. It invented a powerful data binding framework which brings MVVM to the iOS and Android world, and finally, you can write all user application logic in a single codebase. Overall, Crosslight lets you share as much as 96% of your project codebase which sets the breakthrough record in the industry.

To achieve the best user experiences with uncompromised performance, Crosslight delivers true native apps output – not hybrid or browser-wrapped apps. It's true even on iOS and Android which is made possible through the integration with Xamarin platforms. As the results, iOS and Android apps built with Crosslight will run as fast as the native apps built with their own respective native SDK.
