Future proof mobile development

Nikolai Onken caricature

The mobile industry is moving from one extreme into another (WebOS anyone?) and if you are not betting on the safe horses called iOS and Android it is hard to know what other platform is a viable option today. In this talk Nikolai will give you an insight into the current state of developing mobile cross-platform apps with JavaScript, HTML5 and CSS3.

He will cover the mobile toolchain, existing platforms, show you how you can approach mobile testing, explore the different JavaScript libraries and show different concepts of designing architectures which work on several platforms.

After this talk you will have a clear overview of the current state of the mobile web and have concrete tools at your hand to get started or to take existing projects to the next level.
