“With jQTouch, web developers can build smartphone
interfaces for their existing web applications by simply
transforming an existing Document Object Model (DOM) structure into
an interface that works, looks and feels like native iPhone or
Android application. In this tutorial by Mambe Churchill Nanje, we
will learn how to develop such an application.

“jQuery is a javascript framework that simplifies javascript
development life cycle for web applications. Its greatest force
comes from the ease of use and the huge number of plugins
available. As a result of which javascript developers are exposed
to a large number of enterprise components like Sort Tables,
Editable Tables with Ajax and also web application components for
animation, data manipulation.

“One such plugin with very powerful effects is the jQTouch; this
plugin can be used by any web application developer with small
experience in jquery to build applications for iPhone, iPad and
Android devices. For now, just to get a feel, you can point your
internet enabled iPad, iPhone or Android device to
http://www.afrovisiongroup.com/twigle and test the application.
Other examples of applications that can be developed using jQtouch
include Gmail for the iPad or facebook touch.”
