I'm not a javascript/css/html programmer. If anything I'm an objective-C, C#, C++, java programmer.

Looking at Dashcode there are features of the Utility project, Stacklayout project and some custom views that I'd like to combine into one webapp. This app would use 2 layers of stacklayout navigation, and use the infobutton to flip one of the views to get to the settings.

Is there a good way to combine dashcode projects? I notice the the generated "parts.js" file only contains dashcodePartSpecs for elements that Apple has included in that project. Can dashcode be used for non-trival projects? or this there a better way. (and yes I've already created an app store app, but Apple is trying to steal our subscription money.)

Cheers, Gerry

There are similar to Dashcode tools that generate web "apps" Phonegap, iui, jqtouch, extjs and others.

They are essentially html/js/css frameworks from third parties. Dashcode does not get much attention from Apple where as both Phonegap and Extjs are actively supported. There is also an O-Reilly book covering Phonegap.

  • I took a look at these tools. It looks like phonegap uses html/js/css to produce native iphone apps, which would be restricted by the app store. Is that correct or can it be used to produce web pages? – Gerry May 12 '11 at 16:21
