First, the Web App
This is primarily the development of web technologies such as HTML,JAVASCRIPT.CSS, which uses a unified standard. Users do not need to download, through different platform browser access to achieve cross-platform,
The HTML5 feature can also be fully used through browser support, with the disadvantage that these browser-based applications cannot invoke system APIs to implement advanced features or high performance requirements.
Second, Native APP
is the so-called native application. Refers to the application developed using a platform-specific development language. The advantage of using them is that you can take full advantage of the system's API and platform features, which is also the best performance.
The disadvantage is that because of the different development techniques, if you want to cover multiple platforms, you have to develop independently for each platform without cross-platform features.
Third, Hybird App
is to compensate for the shortcomings of the development model of the above two. Inherit the advantages of both sides. First, it enables a large number of Web developers to transform into mobile application developers at almost 0 cost;
Second, the same code only needs to be compiled for different platforms to achieve multi-platform distribution, greatly improve the efficiency of multi-platform development, and compared to the Web App, developers can use the packaged interface to invoke most of the common system APIs.
PhoneGap is the Hybird APP's representative development framework
Four, to learn PhoneGap
1, mobile Internet Software development status in the interests of multi-vendor competition, the current intelligent terminal Platform presents a "contention" phenomenon.
The current mobile terminal system presents a more fragmented state, in which Nokia's main Twitter Symbian, Apple's IOS, and Google's Android, respectively, occupy a larger market share.
However, due to the incompatibility between the current mainstream mobile platforms, there is no compatible application development interface and language for different mobile platform systems;
At the moment, Symbian using C + +, iOS with Object C, and Android app development technology using Java are almost completely out of the mix.
2, the development of mobile Internet software developers after the development of Android applications, but also to re-develop the iOS application, the development of iOS will have to develop Windows Phone, a different platform for the application of the repeated development
1. From the perspective of application development, the same program logic has to be repeated on multiple platforms using different languages and APIs.
2. From the point of view of code maintenance, it is necessary to maintain multiple copies of code for the same project, which will result in large-scale code modification and regression testing once the program logic changes.
3. From an economic standpoint, the development and maintenance of multiple platform applications at the same time will cost the enterprise enormous human and time costs.
3, the emergence of phonegap, why to learn PhoneGap
To solve these problems, cross-platform mobile application development technology has gradually attracted the attention of developers. There are many cross-platform frameworks on the market, but I think the better part of PHONEGAP is also the most developers
