Customer Experience

Jon Nordling@jonnordling@geomarvel

AppStudio for ArcGIS

The ups the downs and everything in between.

What I love about AppStudio

Built for teams. Roles/Groups/Sharing Support

Managing projects & testing was thought about when AppStudio was created

AppStudio Mobile Player&

Development workflow

Web maps and templates

Developers can develop on any platform (Mac/Windows/Linux)

Cross Platform Deployment (Yes it really does work)

Internal apps your organization

Developer documentation and support is great

Cloud Make!!!!(Build Process)

What are some challenges?

Learning QML coming from other development backgrounds

QML feels like JSON & JavaScript

QML is your HTML/CSS

JavaScript your functionality and logic

Custom styles can be difficult

But it can be done. (Really more a QT/QML issue not AppStudio)

Code on Github(Limited but growing)

Good news

ESRI knows and is working hard to make the platform better

How Do I know?

ESRI Told me so :)
