Phonegap And iWebKit Demo (Video and Source)

Randy McMillan sent me information on an example that he has posted this time illustrating the usage of Phonegap and iWebKit.

I have created a short video demoing the example in action:

No knowledge of Objective-C is necessary to create an app using these technologies, and as you can see the look and feel is just like a native application.  In the demo the app is running in the simulator as a native app, not in Safari.  While action games will suffer a noticeable performance lag, apps that are non-graphically intensive have pretty good performance.

You can download this example here:

The example can be downloaded here: iWebkit/Phonegap

iWebKit is a UI framework commonly used in web apps, and Phonegap is a framework used for running web applications as native iPhone/Blackberry/Android applications.

[Update: Sorry Links Removed.  Looks like the author has removed the advice, and decided to just forward the links to his about page.  Will fix if this gets corrected.]

    This has been I fun experiment, I hope this code helps. I’m going to experiment to see if I can get the performance improved on the iPhone. By far iWebKit is the fastest, but JQTouch has the coolest transitions (which affects performance).

    I think this is only for advertisement,. No demo source code found………

    Thank you for alerting me Vijay. Looks like the original author decided that they would just delete the post, and forward the link to their about me page. Hopefully they correct it.
