E-Commerce on Android OS

Abstract: Using a smart phone, which has a small screen, for browsing an online store is not an enjoyable experience. Using a device with a very small screen size is not appropriate since the web shop’s functionalities are not optimized to be accessed from these devices.The solution was to develop both a server side plugin and a client side application. The application which was designed for a mobile device should have used a generic communication in order to connect to the plugin. The plugin was an online store's plugin letting the mobile application do the online shopping experience from a mobile device without using the web browser, which would obviously increase the device performance in browsing a web shop.The result was that the implemented plugin and the application worked for all of the E-commerce frameworks’ instances, so instead of developing a server side plugin and a client side application for one single web shop, a variety of web shops have been supported with a single plugin and an application.
