Re: [xmlvm-users] Android/iPhone/Blackberry Strategy

[Sascha H. <sa...@xm...>]

Hi Alex,

welcome to the mailing list :)

You pose a very good question. First of all, Blackberry is not on our
current list of things to cover. However, we would be thankful for any
contribution and would of course also provide support.

Indeed, as for any platform, there are two paths to go: You either create a
native app, or you create a web-app. It often depends on what type of apps
you want to cover. Not every app can be cross-compiled to the browser
because many APIs are not available there. E.g. 3D, GPS, Sound, Gyro etc
APIs are usually not available easily in mobile web browsers. For such
applications there is currently no way around native apps.

However, we still think web-apps are very interesting. We are currently
heavily working on some fundamental changes in the way we handle
compatibility libraries. When this work is done, I plan to clean-up our
JavaScript output and make it a supported output for Android apps.
