Nearly every day seems to bring more bad news for RIM, but the company says that developers haven’t abandoned its mobile platform yet. Currently, the BlackBerry App World has 46,000 applications, and that number is growing.
Anecdotally, several developers say that they are continuing to target the platform, despite its shrinking user base. Pete Nofelt, lead BlackBerry developer at Foursquare, notes “BlackBerry is very much a big part of our usage; we just hired another BlackBerry developer.”
Developer.com features tutorials, news, and how-tos focused on topics relevant to software engineers, web developers, programmers, and product managers of development teams. In addition to covering the most popular programming languages today, we publish reviews and round-ups of developer tools that help devs reduce the time and money spent developing, maintaining, and debugging their applications. This includes coverage of software management systems and project management (PM) software - all aimed at helping to shorten the software development lifecycle (SDL).
