Architecture
1. PhoneGap Architecture
 Phone Gap is a HTML5 application framework that is used to develop native applications
through web technologies. This means that developers can develop Smartphone and
Tablet applications with their existing knowledge of HTML, CSS and JavaScript. With Phone
Gap, developers don’t have to learn languages like Objective-C for the iPhone.
 Applications that are developed using Phone Gap are hybrid applications. These
applications are not purely HTML/JavaScript based, nor are they native. Parts of the
application mainly the UI, the application logic and communication with a server is based
on HTML/JavaScript. The other part of the application that communicates and controls the
device (phone or tablet) is based on the native language for that platform.
 Phone Gap provides a bridge from the JavaScript world to the native world of the platform
which allows the JavaScript API to access and control the device (phone or tablet).
 Phone Gap essentially provides the JavaScript API with access to the device (phone or
tablet) capabilities like the camera, GPS, device information and many others.
