Applications

Applications are the primary way users interact with IT. Achievement of business goals, innovations, security and flexibility all arise from the capabilities of the applications in use. Especially now, continuous work on agility, security and innovations is essential for any organization. With PLTFRM's partners, new applications can be created at lightning speed, in traditional code or with a low-code approach. With the current shortage on the labor market, it can also be desirable to outsource the management of existing applications or to ask for help in solving elusive problems and monitoring.

By working with experts in the application field, organizations can achieve digitization faster, more effectively and more securely. PLTFRM helps to determine the strategy, supports in the design process where needed and, together with the partners, manages the success of the chosen solution.

The application services that can be purchased via PLTFRM are:

  • Application development: Designing an application in a design sprint, developing new applications as a service, hiring a complete development team or hiring extra help, optionally from students or outside of the Netherlands.
  • Application management: Managing applications by an external team or extension of your own teams. PLTFRM's partners manage all types of web applications, integration software and applications such as SAP, Oracle and MSSQL databases. For any type of application, PLTFRM can take the burden off an organization.
  • Quality & Testing: In developing and in using an application, quality is vital. If a user is unable to work due to a failed release or incident it causes frustration, increased costs and reduced productivity. Proper testing and monitoring of applications are important services for any organization. PLTFRM's partners are experts in the field of quality assurance and can quickly identify performance bottlenecks.
  • Low-code: Building applications takes valuable time. By building new digital functionality within a low-code platform or with pre-built code building blocks, development time can be drastically reduced. PLTFRM and its partners help choose the right type of low-code solution, implement, monitor quality and manage the application.

Mendix Bootcamp

Categorie: Low-Code Application Development

The Mendix bootcamp at Goodzo is a programme through which IT professionals without Mendix experience are trained to become Mendix developers/administrators in 12 weeks, one day per week. This programme follows an agile approach based on a real-life project consisting of 4 sprints of 3 weeks each.

The first sprint focuses on the Mendix rapiddeveloper course. This sprint mainly covers theory on domain models, pages, microflows, XPath, and security. The sprint objective is to achieve the rapiddeveloper certification.

After obtaining the rapiddeveloper certification, participants are ready to start the practical project. Sprint 2 marks the kick-off of this project and focuses on the design phase of a Mendix app. You will learn how to translate processes and user requirements into an application design to then build it using Mendix.

In sprint 3, we build upon the foundation laid in sprint 1 by delving deeper into domain models, microflows, and pages. Participants are encouraged to use their creativity and problem-solving skills to connect the knowledge gained so far and create a functional application with added value for end-users. This sprint also covers how to ensure that your app remains manageable and stable as it grows in size.

Sprint 4 is the final sprint, where the project takes more shape. However, a standalone app is rarely as useful as an app integrated with other systems within your organisation. Therefore, this last sprint focuses on integrations. You will learn how to use web services to exchange data automatically with other systems.

MVP in 7 weeks

Categorie: Low-Code Application Development

Result in 7 weeks? A new concept, developed plan, that needs to be turned into a digital product is often called an MVP. A Minimal Viable Product; a minimal set of functionalities that demonstrates the concept to a group of users. Read more about an MVP here.
Levarne believes that this fits into a project with a duration of 7 weeks. Especially for such a query, we have outlined this based on our experiences per period of these 7 weeks. Based on our experience, several standard steps recur. Especially after discussing the first customer request to a set of deliverable points, there is an immediate need to visualise this. From these steps, it is easier to develop complete software within a number of weeks. A pitfall is a large scope, too high expectations, with an unrealistic timeline. Together, we prevent this by sticking to the Levarne 7-week plan. A fixed set of deliverable points per week.
