This trend is in line with the global market, as more and more businesses and individuals are relying on digital media to promote their products and services.
Trends in the market: One of the main trends in the Mozambican creative software market is the increasing availability of cloud-based software solutions. This has made it easier for customers to access and use these tools, as they no longer need to invest in expensive hardware or software licenses. Additionally, many of these cloud-based solutions offer subscription-based pricing models, which can be more affordable for customers.Another trend in the Mozambican market is the growing popularity of mobile-based creative software. With the increasing adoption of smartphones and tablets, many customers are looking for creative software that can be used on these devices. This trend is particularly relevant in Mozambique, where mobile devices are often the primary means of accessing the internet.

This has created a fertile ground for the development of the creative software market, as more and more people are looking for tools to express themselves creatively. Additionally, Mozambique has a rapidly growing startup scene, which is driving demand for creative software solutions.

These activities are planned and put into stages in a logical order, a process known as the software development life cycle (SDLC) or software development. The SDLC often includes six stages: requirement analysis, design, development, testing, implementation, documentation, and evolution. Programming languages such as JavaScript and C++ are used to create software, with JavaScript being the most popular programming language in 2023 and used by roughly 65 percent of software developers.
