Nice Meetup. I listened about google andriod and iPhone. iPhone need
2.5 GB SDK to download first. We need Mac OS X for iPhone Development.
iPhone Developer License is $99 per year. Eek! Too expensive. If we
have iPhone Developer License, we can sell in apple store and we can
get support for iPhone Development. iPhone Develoment is base on MVC
patten. JSON is built in support but SOAP need 3rd party. In apple
store 50K+ app for iPhone (wow…). If we want to sell app in apple
store we need SWIFT code for bank. If you interest, you can check in
this slide http://www.slideshare.net/sas199/native-phone-development-101.
Another is Google Android. It’s a free and open source phone.
iPhone can run background service but android. We can write background
service and we can call other app from our app. I phone can’t do that
:)
SDK can run Windows, Linux and Mac :) We can use
MOTODEV Studio for Android Development. Android Device are
Android application can do GUI, non-GUI and background service. It have 3 markets place
Google Andriod Market member fee is $25 per year that more cheaper than iPhone. For more detail, you can check in slide
Another topic is phoneGap. I’m very interest it because it just use
javascript and
HTML. It also support Jquery for Phone App Development.
