Appcelerator recently announced that at present, 350,000 mobile application developers from across 250 countries use its mobile platform to build their apps. While the majority of the Appcelerator Mobile Application Developer Community resides outside the United States, a large portion of these developers are from India, Japan, Germany, Brazil and the United Kingdom.

"Our mobile developers blow my mind every day, as they change the way we communicate, consume, shop, entertain and connect through Titanium-powered mobile apps,” said CEO Jeff Haynie, Appcelerator. “I am honored and humbled that 350,000 pioneering developers choose to build their apps on Appcelerator's platform. As this mobile community grows in the U.S. and overseas, this tremendous milestone further demonstrates the scope of innovative and cutting-edge apps that Appcelerator's developers are creating to ignite the mobile revolution."

Appcelerator's mobile platform has been designed with the flexibility of open source development technologies, combined with the power of cloud services. The Titanium platform allows developers to develop popular consumer and enterprise apps, which can now be delivered in 70 percent less time.

Developers leveraging the platform have access to both online and classroom training and can have their questions and queries answered through robust forums. The platform also allows developers to collaborate and network with other developers within their own local communities. 

"Using Appcelerator Titanium changes the most fundamental aspects of how I run a successful mobile app business,” said Stephen Feather, cofounder of Feather Direct. “I don't need to hire multiple expensive, scarce iOS and Android (News - Alert) developers. I simply need to hire one JavaScript developer who can write a single code base, adapt it a bit and deploy it across the two native platforms that reach three-fourths of the global mobile market.”

“This saves us time which, in turn, saves our customers money.”

The developer community at Appcelerator can also discuss the latest advancements in mobile development with enterprise-level executives and developers at CODESTRONG, Appcelerator's annual mobile conference.

The event this year will be held from October 21-23, in San Francisco at the Intercontinental Hotel.
