Yesterday I gave an Introduction To Mobile Development With PhoneGap presentation at the DevNexus developer conference in Atlanta. Thanks to everyone who attended, DevNexus is a great event. Unfortunately, not everyone around the world was able to attend… maybe next year. Luckily for you, I recorded the presentation! You can check it out in it’s […]

Connected Second-Screen App Experiences with PhoneGap & Audio Watermarks
In January 2012, I started the year with a post on multi-screen applications developed with PhoneGap. In that post, I describe an approach for creating mobile applications that extend the app experience onto a second screen – where the mobile device drives the content on that second screen… essentially having an “external monitor” capability on […]
Debugging On-Device PhoneGap Applications with “Charles” Network Proxy
Have you ever been testing or developing an application, and things just don’t seem to be working as you’ve expected? Just imagine that the data that you are receiving from the server isn’t exactly what you’d expect… even worse, what if this is happening in an application that you’ve already released to the app store, […]
Halloween Fun with PhoneGap
About two weeks ago I had a random thought… “Wouldn’t it be fun to build a free Halloween sound effects app using PhoneGap?” (I tend to get excited for any holiday). I had already done a lot of work using sounds in PhoneGap apps with my LowLatencyAudio native plugin, so the groundwork had already been […]
Folding HTML Views in App-UI
A few months back I released App-UI, a UI container toolkit for creating HTML experiences. It gives you common “view navigator” paradigms for mobile experiences… a view navigator stack that can push and pop views, a split view navigator, and a “sliding view” like Facebook’s iOS experience. All of which are created entirely with […]

Emulating PhoneGap/Cordova Apps in the Desktop Browser
Earlier this month the PhoneGap team held the first PhoneGap day. This was in part to celebrate the release of PhoneGap 2.0, but more importantly to bring together members of the PhoneGap community to share and learn from each other. There are great recaps of PhoneGap Day from RedMonk, as well as on the […]
Transcript from Open Session on PhoneGap
Yesterday Raymond Camden and I hosted an open session on PhoneGap. It was an opportunity for the community (you) to ask us questions. There was a great turnout, and we’ll likely be hosting another one of these sessions in the near future. Thanks to everyone who attended! Check these links to see the full Q&A […]
Who Uses PhoneGap/Apache Cordova?
I see questions and comments all the time with the general sentiment “it looks nice, but who really uses PhoneGap/Apache Cordova?”. There is no way to create a definitive list of everyone who uses it, but the general answer is “more people than you think”. Here are a few organizations that you might recognize who […]
