Today mobile applications are a must for almost any business or product. Developing the same application for the major mobile platforms takes a considerable investment in time and learning new technologies. In this workshop we will learn how to leverage existing web-based technologies and skills to develop cross-platform mobile applications in a fraction of the time that it takes for native apps. This will be a hands-on workshop where you will be writing a mobile app from scratch.
You will need a laptop for this workshop.
