The document discusses Titanium, a platform for developing mobile applications using JavaScript, HTML and CSS. It can compile applications made with these languages into native apps for iOS and Android. The document outlines Titanium Developer, a tool for creating, testing and deploying Titanium apps. It provides screenshots of the developer tool and discusses advantages over traditional native and web app development. Specifically, it allows for cross-platform development while producing fast, native applications that can run offline.

13. Lets get Mobile!
Titanium Mobile
contact@marvin-hoffmann.de Stuttgart, 03.06.2011

14. Lets get Mobile!
• supports iOS, Android and BlackBerry (beta) devices
• realized by using cross-plattform JavaScript APIs
• not using a Browser like Titanium Desktop
• Apps run agains standalone JavaScript enginge which
invokes native APIs
➡ native App, but using cross-plattform JavaScript and
not non-portable Java or Objective-C

15. What‘s the gain?
• vs. real native Apps: Flexibility - choice is Yours!
• UI can be designed in HTML plus CSS or by using
the Titanium JavaScript APIs to native UI
components
• create one App for iOS and/or Android
• vs. Web-Apps: You‘re fast and you‘re offline!
• you can design an offline App without the necessity
of learning Objective-C or Java
• plus: your App is fast, because its native!
