“This tutorial describes how you can set up an development
environment for building Android apps on an Ubuntu 11.04 desktop
using Eclipse, the Android SDK, and PhoneGap. I will describe how
to build Android apps from the command line with PhoneGap and from
the GUI with Eclipse and PhoneGap and how to test them in an
Android emulator and on a real Android device. PhoneGap allows you
to develop your Android applications using web technologies such as
HTML, CSS, and JavaScript (e.g. with JavaScript libraries such as
jQuery/jQTouch), and it will turn these web apps into native
Android apps (in fact, PhoneGap supports multiple platforms such as
Android, iPhone, Palm, Windows Mobile, Symbian, so you can use the
same sources to create apps for multiple platforms).”
