This may sound like a silly question. “When is a developer’s job done?” It seems obvious at first. Developers write code. Their job is done when code is written. I used to have this view. My first job out of college had 3 month code freezes before each release. That 3 months was for the QA team to fully test things. The code I wrote was often tested weeks after I wrote it.

A while back I wrote a tutorial that demonstrated how to use local notifications in a NativeScript Core project , also referred to as a vanilla NativeScript project. Since writing that tutorial I had received several requests to demonstrate the same in a NativeScript with Angular project. If you’re unfamiliar, local notifications are scheduled notifications rather than notifications sent from a server.

If you’ve been keeping up with my content since the birth of The Polyglot Developer , you’ll know that I was once a huge advocate of Apache Cordova development using frameworks like Ionic Framework. Having been a web developer and coming from native Android development with Java, cross-platform development using hybrid technologies seemed like a logical next step.
