Hybrid web app
I spend some time looking at what the guys at phonegap.com have done so far. What if you could put your web skillz to good use and go about and make a cross mobile platform App that will work on apple, nokia, blackberry AND android with roughly the same code base? Wait for it… enter PhoneGap.com
Well, watch the demos on their site, it is pretty impressive already. The html+css+javascript pages can be build-in the App so in theory an internet connection is not necessary. But hey this the 21st century, baby…
Anyhoo, I’ll keep my eye on that… It ‘s a very interesting development.
So I played with the webview a little today. The outcome is a calculator to obtain the implied volatility of a put/call option. (If you are not trading options, dont bother)
Overall, using this browser-webserver way is a little slower user experience wise, but it does have huge flexibility to be able to change content without updating the app itself. O yes.
