Overview
Note that this all day workshop is offered on the pre-event workshop day on Oct 2 and therefore is only available to those who have ‘The Works’ or the ‘ Workshop’ ticket.
Join experts from the Developer Relations team at BlackBerry as they show you how to create cross-platform mobile applications using HTML5, JavaScript, and SenchaTouch. They will walk you through the entire process – from getting your tools and environment setup, to getting your application into the market place. Along the way they will show you the power of developing for multiple platforms using SenchaTouch, and even how to incorporate device-specific behaviour into your application.
