What is Phonegap ?

PhoneGap is mobile development framework produced by Nitobi, purchased by Adobe Systems in 2011. It enables software programmers to build applications for mobile devices using JavaScriptHTML5, and CSS3.


The resulting applications are hybrid, meaning that they are neither truly Mobile native application native (because all layout rendering is done via web views instead of the platform's native UI framework) nor purely web-based .

PhoneGap currently supports development for the operating systems Apple iOSBlackBerry, Google Android  LGwebOS, Microsoft Windows Phone (7 and 8), Nokia Symbian OS, Tizen (SDK 2.x), BadaFirefox OS and Ubuntu Touch.

  1.   accelerometer,
  2. camera,
  3. contacts,
  4. file system,
  5. media playback and recording,
  6. network availability.

  2. ·         Bluetooth,
  3. ·         push notifications,
  4. ·         text to speech,
