I’m new to mobile development and since I run a PC I plan to develop in Android. I wanted to fully understand the benefits of mobile framewors, particularly PhoneGap.
If I build an Android app using PhoneGap, can I easily port that to make an iOS app using PhoneGap build?
Does PhoneGap’s api allow access to all the gestures and multitouch from the native applications?
yes, very easily as u just have to manage the js, html part of the app
Thats not for phonegap to do. Phonegap just opens up a webview with your html in it. After that its just js and css. Use libraries like sencha touch or jquery mobile to harness gestures and touch events.
