r2d2b2g is being rebranded "Firefox OS Simulator" and Myk and others are working on making it easy for web developers to install apps that they're working on.
In order to have an idea of what kinds of apps developers can test, I'm interested in knowing which APIs should work on B2G Desktop. The table here gives me an idea: https://wiki.mozilla.org/WebAPI#Planned_for_initial_release_of_B2G_.28aka_Basecamp.29 Here is my guess as to what the support would be, but I'd like confirmation from people who know! I am most interested to specifically know if any of the APIs I list under "should work" below actually don't. Should work: * Idle API * TCP Socket API * Geolocation API * Device Storage API * Contacts API * Open Web Apps * Alarm API * Browser API * Time/Clock API * Web Activities * Permissions API * Web Payment * IndexedDB * Archive API Not available (requires hardware or at least needs to be mocked out to be useful in simulation): * Web Telephony * Vibration API * WebSMS * Screen orientation * Power management API * Mobile connection API * Wifi Information API * Web Bluetooth * Battery Status API * WebFM API * Ambient Light Sensor * Proximity Sensor Not yet in B2G: * Network Information API * Push Notifications API * Network Stats API Thanks for any info you can give me on what to expect here!
