App development projects come in various shapes and sizes – but there are usually some common stages of work that will help you to navigate through the process.
In this guide, we’ve set out the stages of app development in a linear order:
Development
The Development stage is where we turn the app design into the first full, working version of your app.
Testing
Before an app launches to its audience, it should go through a rigorous testing process – sometimes referred to as Quality Control (QC).
Every user-facing feature of the app will need to be tested. This includes all of the frontend features that users will interact with – the UI – and also the backend features that your team will work with, such as the app’s content management system (CMS).
