CSPro Users Forum

Hello Everyone,

I wonder if there is alternative CSEntry for iOS? If try to search a lot but it is nothing. If there is no, how can i make it one? I have iOS developers team and i want to know is there is possibility to make it one for iOS.

Thanks

Currently CSpro runs on windows only. if you intend to run it on iOS then you can use wine or crossover or better run it on a virtual windows drive.
I hope this answers will be useful to you.

Has anyone attempted running a virtual machine (VM) directly on your iPad to simulate a Windows environment to run CSEntry?
We have a client that is using ipads and would like to do a housing needs assessment survey.

This web port: https://csprousers.org/forum/viewtopic. ... 483#p19483
is based on Kotlin Multiplatform technologies: https://kotlinlang.org/multiplatform/
Almost all the JAVA source code has been ported to Kotlin.

When stable (KMP target for Web is still beta), It should allow implementing:

a) PWA Compatible with any OS (Android, Windows, IOS, Linux);
b) Isolated Web Apps (PWA with wide access to low level API, example, sockets);
c) Kotlin Multiplatform targeting IOS ;

Please notice major PWA limitations on iOS:
No Native API Access: PWAs cannot access sensitive hardware like Bluetooth, NFC, or specialized Wi-Fi P2P sensors.
Storage Caps: Storage is often limited to roughly 50MB for web apps, which is much lower than on Windows or Android.
No Background Sync: iOS PWAs are typically paused when minimized, limiting their ability to sync data in the background compared to native apps.

In the meantime, you can test it and share issues with me. I intend to switch to CSPro 8.1 once the final version released. If the CSPro Development Team contribute to it or adopt similar technologies for CSPro CAWI, we can have the same CSEntry runtime running everywhere. Finally, we will have true "Built Once, Deploy Everywhere" CSPro powered apps.
Best,

This sounds like an exciting advancement. Has anyone conducted a survey in the field using this PWA?

Unfortunately CSPro do not have a strong community and ecosystems... because It was closed and developed as closed source...
Read my last report about a more convenient way to solve this issue (or creating PWA directly from the CSPro Designer) here: https://github.com/csprousers/cspro/issues/11
Best,
