Rhodes is an open-source cross-platform mobile application framework for building locally executing, device-optimized native apps using web technologies with Ruby or JavaScript. It is maintained by Tau Technologies as part of RhoMobile Suite and supports iOS, Android, and Windows CE/WM devices with offline data sync via RhoConnect.
Use cases
- build cross-platform mobile apps with Ruby
- develop offline-first enterprise mobile applications
- create native apps for Windows CE handheld devices
- sync mobile app data with a backend server
- access device hardware like barcode scanners from JavaScript
- write one codebase for iOS and Android
When to choose
- you need offline-capable data-centric enterprise mobile apps
- you must support legacy Windows CE/WM devices
- your team prefers Ruby for mobile development
- you need device hardware access (barcode, Bluetooth printing) from web code
When to avoid
- you want a mainstream, widely-adopted modern framework with a large community
- you are building consumer apps targeting only current iOS/Android
- you prefer JavaScript-only ecosystems like React Native or Flutter
- you need cutting-edge mobile UI patterns
