Developing iPhone Web Apps
by Jesse Feiler
Start the free chapteriPhone Web Apps are built with Apple\'s Dashcode tool and provide the fastest and easiest way to present your content on iPhone. This course introduces the tool and its templates and then explores ways in which you can enhance and customize the basics. A major focus of the course is a multi-level browser that can easily be used to present hundreds or even thousands of data elements (including video and images) using multi-level categories. iPhone Web Apps are uploaded to a Web server and are then available to users: there is no need for Apple to approve them or for users to download them. To begin learning today, simply click on the movie links.
