A discussion of the technical options if you're developing iPhone applications with a heavy view from a web developers' perspective.

1. iPhone development for web heads Or how to use the web to do pretty much anything Robbie Clutton @robb1e

6. It only works on the iPhone

7. Low reusability

8. A better way with index.html Enter the UIWebView: NSURL *url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:[ [ NSBundle mainBundle ] pathForResource: @"index" ofType:@"html" ]]; NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url]; [webView loadRequest:request]; Here's one I built earlier: http://github.com/robb1e/iWeb

11. Cross device

12. Abstracted device integration

13. PhoneGap example new Media('beep.wav').play(); ------- Javascript abstraction ------- Device specific library ------- device

17. Offline applications with manifest

18. Offline storage

19. Network connection status

20. Some device integration

21. slideshare.net/remy.sharp/iphone-appleless-apps

25. iUi - code.google.com/p/iui/

29. Build a HTML application and deploy as native

30. Build a HTML application using an abstraction library (e.g. PhoneGap)

31. Build a HTML application and take advantage of HTML5 to avoid the Apple Store

32. Why Web Works Atwood's Law : any application that can be written in JavaScript, will eventually be written in JavaScript. http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/001296.html
