to exploit (a resource); to open up (for development); to develop

There's new energy to harness, new jobs to be created, new schools to build, and threats to meet, alliances to repair.

I'm developing an Android application.

For the sake of long-term interests, we have decided to sell the development department.

Since all tasks have been completed without delay, we are ready to start the next phase of development.

In order to complete the development on schedule, we request that other unrelated tasks be delayed for the moment.
