Deciding between React Native and native development for mobile applications is a matter of priorities. React Native offers cross-platform development, enabling businesses to maintain a single codebase for both iOS and Android, promoting efficiency in resources and development time. On the contrary, native development, utilizing platform-specific languages like Swift or Kotlin, delivers superior performance and can fully harness platform features. Yet, it requires separate development for each platform. While React Native's performance has been on the rise, for intricate functionalities like AR or heavy animations, native apps still hold an edge. Your decision should factor in business needs, time constraints, and desired user experience. For those leaning towards React Native, the composable commerce accelerator ensures swift deployment of native mobile apps.

River Island's checkout migration project, marking their transition to a composable commerce architecture, is successfully live.

As businesses race to adapt to the ever-changing digital world, many are turning to composable commerce to gain a competitive edge. It allows them to weave best-of-need components, fitting each intricate need of their business. This approach enhances agility, enables unique customer experiences across platforms, and avoids the confines of traditional monolithic platforms. It provides a flexible digital architecture, tailored specifically to your business goals and needs. Composable commerce is revolutionizing the digital marketplace, and Cabiri, with its rich experience and accelerator, Ashiba, is leading the way.

Performance testing is the linchpin of software quality assurance. It gauges a system's responsiveness, stability, and scalability under varying loads. With testing methods like Load, Stress, Spike, and Soak, software developers can diagnose bottlenecks, predict system breakage, and anticipate potential spikes in user demand. Especially in the context of composable commerce, optimizing for peak performance is non-negotiable. At Cabiri, we delve deep into performance metrics, ensuring that our platforms are not only functional but also efficient, resilient, and prepared for peak demands.

As Black Friday looms, retailers face the challenge of ensuring their systems are prepared for a surge in customer traffic.
