Introduction
Mobile application development has reached a fever pitch, and if your organization doesn’t have a mobile app… well then you’re behind the times, right? Not really, but there are an every increasing number of mobile applications being developed, particularly for GIS applications.
Mobile applications are applications that run on mobile devices such as your handheld phone handset, your tablet, or some other widget that is considered a mobile device. Mobile applications aren’t so different from regular applications – except they run on exotic operating platforms like Apple’s iOS, Google’s Android, HP’s WebOS, Microsoft’s Window 7 Phone, or the BlackBerry platform… and there are certainly others out there. With such a wide variety of platforms there come a wide variety of language support and capabilities – each with their own unique quirks and challenges.
This course will teach you how to build high performance, attractive mobile applications using the lightweight, browser based ArcGIS Server JavaScript API using JavaScript, HTML5, CSS3, and PhoneGap.
Why should you be using JavaScript, HTML5, and CSS to develop your mobile (and traditional browser based applications) applications? Here are just a few reasons.
- Fast and responsive
- Universal front end
- Tablets, phones, and devices
- Offline support and app stores
- Industry momentum
