DESCRIPTION
During this session you will learn the basics of mobile development using Phonegap. Phonegap allows you to reuse existing HTML and Javascript knowledge while enabling the use of Native APIs. See more here: http://www.phonegap.com This session will teach you how to build your own plugin for Phonegap for either iOS or Android. To do this I will show you the Phonegap Plugin that was created for this project. The Plugin we developed simulates Geofencing by scanning WIFI hotspots. The specific project is to create a Mobile Time Tracker. The tracker will be able to send notifications to remind you to check in and out of your projects as you arrive and depart. Tools that will be used and explainedjQuery MobilePhonegappersistencejs
