FX Digital is an official Metrological Lightning Community Partner, as part of its Lightning Partner Program.
The program provides TV operators and content providers with a worldwide network of resources to help bring high-performing Lightning-based TV apps and user experiences to market faster and at the best quality possible. The Lightning Partner Program designation is for select app development firms, recognized by Metrological to have displayed consistent expertise with the Lightning development framework and SDK.
Lightning provides native-like user experiences for high-performant, browser-based TV apps on next-gen set-top boxes, as well as memory-constrained legacy devices. Lightning reduces the complexity of developing, onboarding, and maintaining apps across devices. A Lightning app can be deployed across TV operators, OTT platforms, Smart TVs, and streaming devices, which reduces costs and time-to-market.
The benefits of building your app with Lightning include:
Access to a huge range of Set-Top-Boxes through Metrological’s App Store
High performance and consistency across next-gen and legacy devices
Single code based approach enabling reduced technical debt and maintenance
A proven framework supported by Tier 1 operators including Sky, Comcast, Vodafone, Virgin and Fetch
