Just now I open a topic in general discussion regarding the future of DNN, why not if DNN adds the mobile hybrid app auto registration facility this will be the kick start for it. 

None of the CMS currently having this issue and it will give life again to the DNN 

Can you please tell us more of what you're thinking here? 

 

That is an interesting concept, but may indeed be a "mixing of concerns". In my experience, every hybrid/native app we build is unique and tailored specifically for the project/use case.

Let's suppose we ran with this idea for a minute...here are just a few of the immediate questions that would need to be answered.

1) What platform or framework would be used to create the hybrid app? (think Xamarin, Ionic, React Native, etc.)
2) Within this framework, which language would be used for the hybrid app? (think C#, Angular, Vue, React, Stencil)
3) What APIs would be used to integrate with the hybrid app? Custom ones in your extension project?
4) What authentication model would the hybrid app use (if any)? (think Basic Authentication, JWT, etc.)
4) What would be the generic UI/UX for the hybrid app?
5) Creating a mobile app automatically would be extremely opinionated, so would this just be a "starting point" for developers?

I guess you get the point of where I'm going with this line of questions. For us, we have "starting points" already for hybrid/native apps, but we wouldn't be looking for any opinionated auto-generation of these.

I'd love to hear more about exactly what you are thinking!
