Javascript Mobile Application Development: Create Neat Cross-platform Mobile Apps Using Apache Cordova and Jquery Mobile

Fabulous coverage of a powerful and mature cross-platform library. The book goes through the basics over the first five chapters, making sure native app developers aren't alienated by the diaspora of HTML5/CSS3 web standards out there. A web developer will find that the book truly gets into its stride via the 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th chapters - which cover advanced Cordova API calls, platform specific code for iOS/Android/WinPhone, unit testing (critical) and finally a "Mega App" that puts your knowledge through some practical pacing.

This book is a very good introduction into Apache Cordova. It basically guides you from the basics to the API integration, then to the most common APIs. After that you get an overview on how to unit test the application and how to write your own plugins and in the end you will get a guide to the implementation of a complex Cordova app.The only thing I personally found missing was in the IDE section a description on how to integrated Cordova in the Android Studio instead of Eclipse, since Eclipse is on its way out in the Android area of programming.

The book is an easy and comprehensive guide to whoever is interested in multi platform mobile development with examples it shows the full life cycle of developing mobile cordova apps.

Se ven la mayoría de APIs disponibles, pero no se aprofundiza en ellas. Simplemente va mostrando ejemplos de cada una y te explica que hace cada cosa.Muy bueno como introducción para hacerse con el workflow de trabajo en Cordova y sus APIs más típicas.
