That is incorrect. Apps written for webOS that use the EnyoJS framework are currently seen running on iOS, RIM (Playbook), Android, and even in the Chrome web browser.
- Yoric 14y agoAgain, correct me if I am wrong, but i believe that these applications cannot send or receive SMS, phone calls, VideoConf calls, using the WebOS APIs on the devices that you describe. In other words, while EnyoJS may be cross-platform, it represents only a small fraction of the features of WebOS.
- j_col 14y agoBut it is still an open source cross-platform HTML5/Javascript based platform. Of course it will not enable you to, for example, send an SMS via an app running in a Chrome web browser, but I would have thought that was a given for any such platform.
- asadotzler 14y agoWindows 8 is also a HTML/JS based platform. It's not "the Web" either.
