Resco MobileApp Studio allows developers to quickly design and build mobile forms. It is a Microsoft Visual Studio add-on, so all its tools are integrated and accessed directly with Visual Studio. All forms/user controls created with MobileApp Studio are generated along with VB or C# source code and are attached to the application project. This allows developers to customize the generated forms/controls. Resco MobileApp Studio also includes advanced data-binding capabilities for convenient for mobile database solutions.
