PhoneGap Learning Tutorial

Hi Guys, This tutorial might be helpful to all developer who just started the PhoneGap build technologies. In this tutorial we are going to learn how to configure the PhoneGap with eclipse for android application. Step -1: You have already android sdk configure with eclipse. If not have then configure the android sdk   or    ADT with eclipse. Step-2 :   You have to download the new PhoneGap build from Here. Step-3 :  Now Extract the rar file of PhoneGap in any of your directory in your computer. And go to to extract directory of PhoneGap\phonegap-2.9.0\phonegap-2.9.0\lib\android. Here you have all files that are need to configure with eclipse. Step 4. Open Eclipse and create the Android Project name PhoneGapDemo. Now the create the folder www name inside the assets folder and copy the cordova.js file inside the www folder. And copy the cordova2.9.0.jar file from the extaxting folder of phonegap and paste inside the libs folder and copy the xml folder of PhoneGap

PhoneGap is an application container technology allows us to create natively installed applications for mobile devices using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. We create mobile application across platform with a single code base and the app runs on the "webview" of the mobile platform. Building applications for each device - iPhone, Android, Windows Mobile amd more requires different frameworks and languages. PhoneGap solves this by using standards based web technologies to bridge web applications and mobile devices.   PhoneGap applications are developed using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, however the final product of a PhoneGap application is a binary application archive that can be distributed through standard application ecosystems.   For iOS applications the output is an IPA file) (iOS Application Archive), for Android applications the output is an APK file) (Android Package), for Window Phone the output is a XAP file (Application Package), etc.. These ar

PhoneGap is a mobile development framework produced by Nitobi, purchased by Adobe Systems. It enables software programmers to build applications for mobile devices using JavaScript, HTML5, and CSS3, instead of device-specific languages such as Objective-C or Java. The resulting applications are hybrid, meaning that they are neither truly native (because all layout rendering is done via web views instead of the platform's native UI framework) nor purely web-based (because they are not just web apps, but are packaged as apps for distribution and have access to native device APIs). From version 1.9 onward it is even possible to freely mix native and hybrid code snippets. The software underlying PhoneGap is Apache Cordova . The software was previously called just "PhoneGap", then "Apache Callback". Apache Cordova is open source software. In October 2011, PhoneGap was donated to the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) under the name Apache Cordova . Thro
