1.

What are the main differences between native, hybrid, and web mobile
applications?
Answer:
● Native Applications: Built specifically for a particular operating system (iOS or Android)
using platform-specific languages (Swift/Objective-C for iOS, Kotlin/Java for Android).
They offer optimal performance and access to all device features.
● Hybrid Applications: Developed using web technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) and
wrapped in a native container. Tools like Apache Cordova and Ionic are commonly used.
They can access some device features but may not perform as well as native apps.
● Web Applications: Mobile-optimized websites accessed through a browser. They do not
require installation and have limited access to device features compared to native and
hybrid apps.

2. What is the MVVM architecture pattern in mobile app development?


Answer:
MVVM (Model-View-ViewModel) is a design pattern used in mobile app development to
separate the development of the graphical user interface from the business logic or back-end
logic.
● Model: Represents the data and business logic.
● View: Represents the UI components and layout.
● ViewModel: Acts as an intermediary between the View and the Model, handling the
presentation logic and state management.

3. How do you handle state management in a mobile application?


Answer:
State management in mobile applications can be handled through various approaches and
libraries:
● For iOS (Swift): Using property observers, Combine framework, or third-party libraries
like RxSwift.
● For Android (Kotlin): Using ViewModel, LiveData, and Data Binding from Android
Architecture Components or third-party libraries like RxJava.
● For Flutter: Using built-in state management techniques like StatefulWidget and
Provider, or libraries like Riverpod, Bloc, and MobX.

4. What is the importance of asynchronous programming in mobile


development?
Answer:
Asynchronous programming is crucial in mobile development to keep the user interface
responsive and improve performance. It allows developers to perform time-consuming
operations (like network requests or database queries) in the background without blocking the
main thread, thus ensuring a smooth user experience.
5. How do you implement dependency injection in mobile apps?
Answer:
Dependency injection (DI) is a design pattern used to implement IoC (Inversion of Control),
where the creation and binding of dependencies are managed externally.
● For iOS (Swift): Using libraries like Swinject or Resolver.
● For Android (Kotlin): Using Dagger or Koin.
● For Flutter: Using libraries like get_it or Provider.
