Yes! The Median platform works with all website development platforms. Your app will display your website content as it is displayed in a mobile web browser such as Mobile Safari or Mobile Chrome.
We have many customers who develop their web content using Wordpress, Weebly, Wix, Webflow, and more. And customers who build web applications to deploy as web apps using Microsoft .NET and SharePoint, Salesforce Lightning, Bubble.io.
Most websites will display within apps created using Median automatically. To build highly immersive native apps as a web developer use the Median JavaScript Bridge to add a range of native functionality
Apps built using Median are much more than a wrapper app. The Median platform allows you to build an app with advanced native functionality and features. You can add native navigation menus, native push notifications (with OneSignal and other push providers), and incorporate our premium native plugins such as Face ID / Touch ID Biometric authentication, Social Login, QR/Barcode scanner, In-App Purchases, and much more.
When building your app you'll also benefit from the Median build platform which has been supported and maintained since early 2014. As iOS and Android changes are released you can rebuild your app using the Median App Studio to maintain compatibility while avoiding the overhead that comes from maintaining your own code base.
All changes made to your website will be reflected immediately in your app similarly to how they are reflected immediately in a standard mobile browser. Native apps built using Median obey the same cache headers as a standard browser. If you are experiencing delays seeing your updated website reflected in your app you should verify the cache headers that are being sent by your web server and review potential solutions in our documentation.
There is no cost to build a Median Free app. When published to the Apple App Store and Google Play Store your app will display a small "Powered by Median.co" message at launch and the JavaScript Bridge will not be available for advanced integration.
To build a completely white label app with full JavaScript Bridge capabilities a Median Professional license can be purchased directly within our App Studio on the Licence tab or on our website at https://median.co/pricing.
In addition to the app license, we offer a variety of optional add-ons and services. These include:
