Drupal + PhoneGap - The Mobile App

Mobile is growing fast: 25x over the next five years. In a year or two (if not now), not being present on mobile in a focused manner will be the equivalent of not being present on the web today. With so many mobile platforms and device types available, building effective, sustainable mobile solutions across such platforms is complex and costly.

In this session, we will discuss the integration of Drupal with PhoneGap. This integration enables content from your Drupal site to be converted into mobile app(s) for a wide variety of mobile platforms, including iOS, Android, BlackBerry and several others. The open source PhoneGap allows us to take the power of a content driven Drupal site to a wide variety of mobile devices.

During this session, we will also highlight Armedia's recent integration of Drupal and PhoneGap and demo the resulting product, The Well Project Mobile App, which delivers information to women around the world who are afflicted with HIV and AIDS.
