iPhone and Android Apps: WebKit in your Pocket
Did you know that you can build applications out of HTML and Javascript that run on iPhone and Android devices? Not just "mobile web apps", but apps that run just fine when offline, use some device features like geolocation, can mimic the look and feel of native apps, and even be installed by users on their home screen.
We'll look at the rapidly changing landscape of WebKit app development and pick apart a fully functional, open source example app. Bring your iPhone or Android device along and you can see for yourself how this works across the platforms.
