Overview

PhoneGap (aka Cordova) lets developers use HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to write a program once and release it for all major mobile platforms--iOS, Android, Windows Phone, BlackBerry, and more--without having to learn proprietary code for each platform. The PhoneGap Book shows you how to harness this open source library to create four mobile games, including variations on classics like Accelerometer-Pong and a GPS-enabled MineSweeper game that can be played outdoors. Each game incorporates key device features like touch controls, the accelerometer, and the camera to teach readers skills for creating any mobile app. Extensive, annotated code for the complete games helps clarify concepts and takes readers through the process of developing real world apps.Covers PhoneGap 3.0.
