Layer, the organization
making it feasible for designers to add rich messaging functionality to their
applications without needing to fabricate their own base starting from the
earliest stage, is today making its administration accessible to the general
population.
Layer can be viewed as an service
that engineers can include into their applications utilizing just a couple of
lines of code, improving what would somehow or another be a more complicated
development work, and permitting them to concentrate rather on what makes their
application different from others. Layer message support has the capacity to
send content, voice, photograph and video, and can be used as a messaging app
in itself or as a part of other apps.
After the feature appeared at Disrupt, it instantly saw
2,500 sign-ups from intrigued engineers who tested the beta. From that point
forward, Layer has developed its number of access members to more than 10,000.
Some of its initial adopters incorporated the applications like Pop and Emoji. However, owing to the beta
version, only a small population of developers of about 1500 have been able to
use Layer’s services. This number is now surely going to increase once it goes
public.
Layer is likewise
presenting another item called Atlas, a tool set that will permit designers to rapidly
modify or tweak an iMessage-like service in their iOS or Android applications.With the UI (client
interface) structure called Atlas, engineers have hold of source code for,
iMessage-like services for their applications, which they can use directly or
redo to whatever degree they want. They can change the text styles and textures,
or they can just utilize Atlas for building a distinct messaging app of their
own.
Everything in Atlas is flexible
– it’s as though you had the opportunity to take iMessage and make it your own.Included in Atlas are all
the regular functions found in ordinary applications. The code for Atlas is
open source, and is completely integrated with Layer, making it less difficult
to kick-start the integration of the messaging service to the main application.
It is quite evident that
this is a great service for developers and let us look forward to some good
times from mobile application development.
