If you're looking for a way to write smartphone apps with just HTML, CSS and JavaScript then you've come to the right place because this books shows how to create a web app once, and then turn it into apps for both iTunes and the Android Market.
An All In One Book
There are a number of core technologies covered in this book, including HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP and MySQL. Using them you will learn how to create websites and web applications, and even downloadable apps for iOS and Android devices. And you don't have to already know any of these languages because everything is clearly explained, including crash course introductions to each technology - with sufficient information to build sophisticated web and mobile apps.
What's In The Book
In Part I of the book you will learn how to use standard HTML and the latest HTML5 features to their best effect, along with Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), JavaScript programming, and the server side of things by using PHP and MySQL. Once all the technologies have been introduced, Part II focuses on how to build mobile friendly websites, with examples such as creating eBooks and web applications. Then, in Part III, both the iOS and Android SDKs (Software Development Kits) are explained in detail, and you are taken through the process of turning your web pages into fully fledged standalone apps for the iTunes store and Android Market - all without having to learn a stroke of Objective C or Java because software wrappers are already written for you and supplied on the companion website.
