NOT ON THE CURRENT EDITION
This blip is not on the current edition of the Radar. If it was on one of the last few editions, it is likely that it is still relevant. If the blip is older, it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today. Unfortunately, we simply don't have the bandwidth to continuously review blips from previous editions of the Radar.

We have previously been skeptical of claims of reusable code working across platforms. Our experience with many tools in the market has been mixed and we advise caution to our clients who are looking at these types of solutions. Taking an approach that carefully navigates these dangerous waters, we feel Calatrava is worth evaluating for mobile application development. The framework neatly follows the separation of business and presentation logic, maximising reuse where there is commonality, and providing native access where speed or device-specific idioms are to be followed.
