Questions tagged [phonegap-build]

'Phonegap Build', an Adobe cloud service, allows you to upload your HTML, CSS, and Javascript to their build service and returns you your complete package. It removes the need for local build servers and SDK's for each destination platform.

PhoneGap Build is a cloud service for compiling PhoneGap applications.

Adobe PhoneGap provides a way for users to create mobile applications using technologies such as HTML, CSS, and Javascript. Applications created with PhoneGap can be distributed to various vendor app stores (ex: Apple App Store) and installed on a end-user's device like any other native application. Each vendor provides a different toolchain, and each PhoneGap release is compatible with a specific set of tools. This is where PhoneGap Build comes into help.

Here are some of the benefits PhoneGap Build provides:

  • Managed Compilation and Signing (No SDKs)
  • Multiple Supported Platforms
  • Work With Your Team
  • Quicker Development Cycle
