What is a good cross platform development framework and stack that works well on Flame, Android, and iOS?
Does this list work ok?
- PhoneGap/Cordova for native access
- jQuery Mobile for UI widget
- Bootstrap3 for responsive layout
- jQuery for DOM access
- Knockout for dynamic update
- Toastr for non-blocking alerts
- Amplify for data/storage/messaging
- Underscore for general
Is html template system needed? Given that jQuery Mobile widgets are already used to build the UI.
- LukeB_UK 12y agoI'd avoid jQuery Mobile, it's extremely laggy in my experience.
- hrktb 12y agojQuery Mobile is mostly for low spec phones or very broad compatibility. If the target can be narrowed to decently speced Webkit engines and firefox, there is no need for an extra abstraction layer. Also PhoneGap should allow the data storage, so amplify might nit be needed , except for cache management perhaps ?
- ww520 12y agoWhat's a good alternative for targeting mobile only (no need for website)? Sencha? Intel App Framework?
- hrktb 12y agoI don't know much about the intel framework, they seem to be really all over the place. Sench seems tried and true, I don't have enough experience with it to say much, except that it's a lot more flexible than building the UI in PhoneGap/Cordova in terms of widgets and controls.
- shaunol 12y agoLooking at the Cordova Platform Support[1], barely any features are supported on Firefox OS - does anyone know why? [1] http://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/3.4.0/guide_support_index.md.html#Platform%20Support http://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/3.4.0/guide_support_index....
