Oh, my memory is hazy here, but if I remember right, at the beginning Apple didn’t let them download executable code (companion js) to the app, so they just took a javascript code from every app in the pebble store, bundled it into Pebble iOS app, and updated it every few days with a fresh code.
Can anyone confirm?
- KatharineBerry 2y agoThat is exactly what we did. Bonus fact: we didn’t actually read the bundled code - we downloaded it from the internet and ran it as usual. But a server-side check ensured you could only get the JavaScript we’d bundled. Or at least it did until we eventually quietly turned off the check, when Apple stopped paying attention.
- tomaskafka 2y agoOooh, clever :). Just dash quickly when the Sauron's eye looks in another direction :)).
