PhoneGap App Development
SkyTek built application with PhoneGap are not just like normal mobile web sites. PhoneGap applications are able to interact with mobile device hardware, such as the Accelerometer or GPS, in ways that are unavailable to normal web applications. PhoneGap applications are also built and packaged like native applications, meaning that they can be distributed through the Apple App Store or the Android Market.
PhoneGap supports a number of different mobile platforms, including:
Android
iPhone
Blackberry
Symbian
Palm
The PhoneGap SDK provides an API that is an abstraction layer providing the developer with access to hardware and platform specific features. As PhoneGap abstracts the native mobile platform, the same code can be used on multiple mobile platform with little or no change, making your application available to a wider audience.
Hardware specific features supported by the PhoneGap API include:
Geolocation
Vibration
Accelerometer
Sound
