Tiivistelmä
The aim of this thesis was to study the effects on the performance of an Android device while using applications developed with react native and Appsheet, a no code development platform. The thesis also explores the challenges and limitations that exist in the process of app development while using the said platforms.
The study was conducted by developing various applications that can be used to measure the selected performance parameters. This was supplemented with a thorough study of the existing work on the use of react native and Appsheet, along with closely related necessary information. The performance parameters were graphical processing unit usage, central processing unit occupancy and frames per second.
The investigation resulted in a competitive data analysis among the two development platforms. Applications developed with Appsheet exceeded in performance in most of the parameters as compared to the application developed with React Native.
