I keep reading all these articles how LinkedIn used node.js and backbone.js to build their mobile application.
See this article: http://venturebeat.com/2011/08/16/linkedin-node/
In it they say LinkedIn used only 5% native phone features. The other 95% was cross-platform HTML, JS, and CSS.
What I don’t see in the article is any mention of PhoneGap or trigger.io.
So how was linkedin able to make their mobile application with just javascript and access “5%” of the native api’s?
Thanks!
Actually they used websockets to communicate from the JavaScript to native layer.
