Don’t be Discouraged…It’s not that tricky!

There are multiple ways to develop a mobile app• iOs

• Android

• Hybrid Web App

– Tool: PhoneGap is a mobile development framework. It enables software programmers to build applications for mobile devices using JavaScript, HTML5, and CSS3, instead of device-specific languages such as Objective-C or Java.

– PhoneGap:

• It is a wrapper allowing us to package mobile sites as mobile applications and subsequently have these on the app stores

• It is also a bridge in the sense that it allows us to bridge into the native features of the phone but using JavaScript

– By using PhoneGap making two verions of the one app within the 12 hour period will be feasible.

– It also means that very little or no Java/Objective C will be required which lowers the barriers to entry for the code-a-thon meaning that “less technical” students can also get involved and be in with a chance of winning the grand prize of €1000.
