Fuse Description
Lately, we see more and more comprehensive software solutions for mobile app development. The vast majority of utilities of this sort are bringing the job of developers and that of developers closer and closer by offering powerful tools for both parties under a single roof.
Created to offer a quick and efficient way of building animations and mobile apps in real-time on multiple devices synchronously, Fuse is a smooth-running development tool that fits rather well into the aforementioned trend.
Before you get started, you should know that Fuse (at least when it comes to its real-time preview and coding capabilities) requires a third party component in order to run sleekly. This said, upon first launching the app, it is advisable that you take a couple of seconds to go through the Setup Guide, which helps you install Sublime Text and its dedicated plugin for Fuse.
User-friendly tool for mobile app development
Simplicity is the word that best describes its modern-looking user interface. Considering you have followed the advice to install all its components, every feature that Fuse has to offer should be accessible with a simple click on their dedicated buttons.
From the app’s main window you can open the Monitor and Inspector, as well as create new or open already existing projects. If you are a beginner when it comes to working with tools like Fuse, you can access the guides, the official Fuse forum and some examples directly from the main window.
Tools that help designers and developers alike
Designed for iOS and Android mobile platforms, Fuse enables you to preview your projects in real time and, if need be, apply changes directly to the code. You can also take advantage of easy-to-use tools to build layouts, navigation menus and animations using UX markup and JavaScript.
This is a good time to point out that the app is capable of emulating environments for the most modern iOS- and Android-based phones, so you can get an accurate idea of how your apps or animations will react.
Currently in Beta, it already shows great potential
Fuse is currently in active Beta development stage, which means that new features will surely be added in the future and also that some bugs might come to light at times, but we must mention that we have not encountered any during our tests.
All in all, Fuse is a powerful and accessible development tool for mobile platforms such as iOS and Android. From our point of view, it ticks all the right boxes with multi-platform and real-time preview, powerful visual tools and effects, a fast core engine and last but not least, a modern UI.
