Saleeh K
I become passionate about WordPress and WooCommerce, when I got into Freelance work for developing a custom WooCommerce site, in 2012. I started my journey as a developer at age of 17, when I developed a Student management system for my school. As the M-commerce wave swept the world (ushered-in by the adoption of Smartphones), I got several enquiries for developing Mobile apps for Online stores and Blogs. After creating several apps for such eCommerce websites and blogs, my friends ( who later became co founders) and I, automated the tasks involved in making the app, and created an engine to reduce the time involved. We later realized that this engine we created, has the potential to become a platform, for anyone to create in native mobile apps in just few clicks. Thus Appmaker.xyz was born! We are a company handling international clients and have customers from 55 countries! We provide tool for any WooCommerce store owner to convert their stores into Native mobile apps in just few clicks.
