Mobile Application Development made Easy: iOS and Android
Why build for one when you can build for 6,000+ devices with Adobe AIR. Session Topics: Orientation and Capabilities.
"Wish this course had come out earlier. I've been looking in different directions for the way that would work best for me to develop mobile apps and Ben did a great job." (Barry Birkett)
While Apple really wants you to code in C# and Google wants you to develop in Java for Android, Microsoft wants you to develop in .net and blackberry in... you get the point how can one person build in so many languages and more over then that do you really need to start from scratch for each output application?
The answer if you ask these companies respectfully would be yes as they would love to lock you into one language - there language. Adobe Air is fully supported on Apple IOS(iPhone, iPad Touch and iPad), Blackberry,Android, Televisions, Desktops (mac and pc) and more. With support to over 6,000 devices.
The basic idea is simple. You just need to know one powerful language AS3 and with it you can develop applications for all the supported mobile and desktop options.
