Browser-based Cloud Builds can build and deploy projects from Felgo Cloud IDE. Game Network offers achievements, leaderboards, challenges, cloud storage and offline support. Listed targets include Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, Linux and web. Personal has an annual turnover limit under €50k.

MobileTogether Designer
MobileTogether Designer is Altova’s framework for building data-driven native apps and enterprise solutions. It combines drag-and-drop interface design, Action Tree visual programming, and XPath/XQuery for selecting and processing data. Apps can connect to REST and SOAP services, XML, JSON, HTML, and relational databases including SQL Server, MySQL, Oracle, and PostgreSQL. MapForce Server integration can connect legacy sources such as Excel, EDI, and text. App functions may include camera use, push notifications, maps and geolocation, barcode and QR scanning, NFC, MQTT, signatures, and biometric authentication. Designer includes a simulator for supported operating systems and automated tests replayable on client devices through MobileTogether Server. Apps can be deployed to the server for access or compiled from generated code for app store submission. The server can run on premises or in a private or public cloud such as AWS or Azure. Designer is free for unlimited developers; MobileTogether Server starts at $1,000 a year for one core. Custom-branded app store deployments require the server, and developers compile and submit the generated code themselves.
