Though traditional application development is time-intensive, developing a video calling app is even more complicated due to the added layer of complexity of managing multiple video streams. It may take months from sharing design specifications to front-end coding, back-end coding, and then QA. The Software Development Life Cycle may extend further after factoring in multiple rounds of reworks.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s where another problem starts: developers often end up sacrificing functionalities & user experience under pressure to deliver within a stiff deadline. Unfortunately, the existing app development process is a tightrope balancing act between speed and functionality.<\/p>\n

- Lack of Video App Development Expertise <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Designing and developing a video meeting application goes beyond building a simple web or mobile app. It requires a thorough knowledge of UI & frontend layout development, server-side programming, analytics, security and privacy, bandwidth optimisation, browser, and device compatibility. The sad reality is that a majority of developers lack the required expertise to build a real-time video meeting application.<\/p>\n

- Gap in the Design and Code <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
The disconnect between visual design and code is another headache for developers. Visual designers create mocks\/prototypes; developers need to code them. However, they often fail to produce a similar aesthetic impact.<\/p>\n
The corresponding change has to be made in the code whenever there is a design change, causing further delay.<\/p>\n
Limitations of Existing Low Code Embeds\u00a0 <\/strong><\/h3>\n
To assist software developers, many leading communication providers have recently launched video embed solutions loaded with pre-built User Interface (UI) templates. These platforms provide iframe code for easy integration into apps and browsers. Developers, however, feel constrained with the limited functionalities and capabilities of such pre-defined UI templates. They still need to write additional codes for greater customisation to meet the needs of specific use cases, which is not even possible in a majority of instances.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s where EnableX App Visual Builder<\/a> offers limitless possibilities for developers.<\/p>\n
