Web 2.0 Browser to Develop iPhone, iPad, Android And BlackBerry Apps
Is it real to develop mobile applications for iPhones, iPads, Android-based devices and BlackBerries with one browser no more? Yammer.com thinks so and gave TechWeb.com editor-in-chief David Berlind a demo of how it works at Web 2.0 Expo 2010 in San Francisco.
Last week, at Web 2.0 Expo, one entrepreneur took some time to show me what his startup Yapper does. The demo, which captured on video (below) captured by David Berlind, shows how ordinary non-programmers can develop mobile applications for iPhones, iPads, Android-based devices, and BlackBerries with little more than a Web browser.
In the video below, there are four steps, the first includes selection of the final delivery platform (iPhone, Android, or BlackBerry). According to Yapper.com founder Chintu Pratikh, the iPad as a delivery platform is included when you pick iPhone. But, the user interface makes to indication to that effect until you get to the end of the four step process.
In other steps, the "developer" can personalize the application colors, labels (the application's name for example), icons, App Store image, and the application's splash page (appears on launch). As can be seen from the video, you're better off uploading exact image sizes instead of counting on Yapper to properly resize or crop any images. Fortunately, Yapper gives you a good idea of the image dimensions that it's expecting.
