description

The most successful mobile applications share one commonality: they connect users with information. Mobile users demand up-to-the-minute content and targeted, relevant information. For developers wanting to move beyond "Hello World" and interested in taking their apps to the next level, we have put together this session to show you how to setup your own mobile CMS in under 30 minutes. Whether you want to manage high scores for your new game or user profiles for the next hot social app, we'll show you how to create, configure, and connect to your very own cloud CMS. This talk will be tailored to Cocoa Touch developers (iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad) including sample code, but the concepts apply to any mobile platform.
