FAQ

Desktop Application Development FAQs

When do I need a desktop app instead of a web app?

A desktop app makes sense when you need native performance, offline operation, deep hardware or peripheral access, or tight integration with the local operating system. If those aren’t requirements, a web app is usually faster to build and easier to maintain.

Can you build one app for both Windows and macOS?

Yes, with cross-platform frameworks like Electron or .NET we can target both from a shared codebase, or build fully native where performance demands it. We advise on the right approach for your needs.

Do we own the desktop software?

Yes, you own 100% of the source code and IP, with full documentation and handover.
