50+ Mobile application frameworks for mobile software developers

Nowadays mobile application development has become a hot topic among the developers. People are now inclined towards mobile held devices like phone,tablet and smart phones more than desktop computers or laptop computers. According to Wikipedia It is estimated over 6.8 billion mobile devices are in use across the globe.

Developing software applications for mobile devices has its own challenges. Unlike PC software, when developing mobile software, developer sometime has to use entirely different sets of controllers for the application. Often developer has to write code which would address performance issues and data transfer issues differently than a non Mobile software application.

In In order to minimize these difficulties and to develop mobile Applications rapidly there are lots of frameworks available on the Internet for mobile software developers.
