This document will help us to generate the APK for Citizen and Employee applications.

1. Android web view

Android offers a variety of ways to present content to a user. To provide a user experience that’s consistent with the rest of the platform, it’s usually best to build a native app that incorporates framework-provided experiences, such as Android App Links or Search. Additionally, you can use Google Play-based experiences, such as App Actions and Slices, where Google Play services are available. Some apps, however, may need increased control over the UI. In this case, a WebView is a good option for displaying trusted first-party content.

In Egov we will create an only a responsive web app, we will not create native apps(Android, IOS), we just use the android web view to render the out web application
