I need your expertise to understand how an Android App can communicate with an existing website.
- Using the same web interface but should be displayed as an Android app
- Using the same database, when we try searching, and the result should be displayed with in the app
- Using the same authentication, so if we accept username/password on our Android app, it should use an existing website script which can authenticate and whatever is returned should be displayed in the app.
Thanks
Well you can use webview for display of pages that should be optimized for best user experience on phone, you can query the database and show response on android – for that you need to build parser on webpage that can accept some sort of query and return response in for example json or xml format. The same goes for authentication, it is very simple actually
