I wrote a wrapper for the Apache Cordova (Phonegap) API recently, so that it could be used with ClojureScript. I got Hello World, etc up and running without much fuss. There are however two issues:
1. Also a slow start-up time, since Phonegap already has resources to load, and then a large JavaScript file on top of it. On a subpar device, this wait was several seconds. 2. Using Phonegap itself feels very second-class, especially with regard to the complex Android app lifecycle, things like Intents, and so on. That said, if are basically building a webapp that just needs some access to still inexistent APIs like camera, battery, compass etc, and you are targeting better, recent-gen hardware, it (Phonegap) could be a nice option. I'll also put the wrapper online soon. On Wed, Nov 28, 2012 at 10:54 AM, Herwig Hochleitner <hhochleit...@gmail.com > wrote: > 2012/11/27 John Gabriele <jmg3...@gmail.com> > >> Hm.
