Session Outline:
Mobile/Smartphone applications are becoming "must have" extensions to existing applications and system management tools but there are few IBM i specific applications available. This session will take a look at the Open Source Tools available that can allow you to build applications that work with IBM i data and applications. This presentation focuses on how the development of a mobile app is different than other client app development and the session will start specifically with two web applications that are written in "classic" web style. Both "classic" web apps are IBM i based web apps; One using CGIDEV2 and one using a Java Servlet. The session will demonstrate how take the two apps and develop an HTML5 "mobile" version of both apps. Then the two "mobile" web apps will be used to create a "native" Android app using one of the "mobile" web applications as an example and also develop an Android application from the other "mobile" web application using a framework called PhoneGap which allows deployment to iPhone and Blackberry. The goal is to present all the differences between a web app, a mobile web app and a mobile "native" application and to show how each type of application can be created using Open Source tools.
