    Default PhoneGap - Create your own mobile apps

    If you have knowledge of HTML5, CSS and JavaScript, then it's simple to create your own mobile apps ready to be run under iOS, Android™, Windows® Phone, Blackberry® 5/6/7 and webOS.

    In short terms, you basically utilize , a free and open source framework, which relies on presence of on your desktop.


    How PhoneGap works:

    In simple terms this explains the workings of PhoneGap: An app that was created with the PhoneGap framework calls the web browser on the mobile device platform which can run a web application locally. This PhoneGap created app suppresses everything that reminds us of the browser, so the frame and all controls such as the Internet address bar or menus. At first glance, you have to do it only with a browser in full screen mode, packaged in the mobile application which consists of HTML5, JavaScript and CSS.
    But also providing access to the device's hardware such as camera, address book, or else as a normal application works. The current mobile device's browser component intercepts it from the PhoneGap views of their own JS library and converts it into native calls of the respective platform. The result is returned to the application via JavaScript callback.

    What you need to do:

    • Create an elevated command prompt
    This is a Command Prompt that allows you to access files and programs as an Administrator of the machine. How to create such one in detail is described .

    • Install NodeJS
    Download NodeJS installer and run the installer

    • Install PhoneGap
    Ensure internet connection is working !!!
    Open elevated command prompt created before and enter C:\> npm install -g phonegap
    Now PhoneGap gets installed, which will take some minutes, so be patient
