Tiivistelmä
The providers of software development kits have made it possible for developers to be able to develop both personal and commercial applications. Due to this fact, applications are developed by third party developers and anyone interested in developing an application. In order to develop on any desired platform, it requires using a software development kits.
There are different operating systems used in the process of development but there are two very significant providers that are impacting the mobile application industry and both own major global market shares, Apple iOS and Samsung bada. The main purpose of this thesis is to compare iOS and bada SDKs, focusing on user friendliness, development process, and publishing.
The comparison was done by installing both platforms, developing an application with each of them and going through the publishing process involved in distributing each application. Every taken step is documented. The experiments of this thesis are based on the available documents provided by both Apple and Samsung in addition to materials related to mobile application development.
The aims and objectives of comparing two platforms were successful. Both platforms were installed and three applications were developed on each platform. Furthermore, application distribution process was achieved and well documented.
