Maybe some might find this, a hypothetical question. I have recently started development of mobile application development for Android. Currently studying the basics of it. It got me thinking, if one has to develop an application which is portable and executes just fine on each of OS/platforms namely - Android, Apple -IOS,Windows Phone-7, then
1] What programming language,SDK/framework and tools should one be using? Is there any one thing or one has to pick and match different code frameworks for different tasks in app. development?
2] Would this be a realistic scenario at all if not already?
3] What tools(compilers/build tools, debugging tools, code editors) are available for such task?
What programming language,SDK/framework and tools should one be using?
JavaScript, HTML5, and PhoneGap.
Would this be a realistic scenario at all if not already?
If you can live within the confines of what JavaScript, HTML5, and PhoneGap give you, it is perfectly realistic.
(BTW, if you are more into gaming, that's not my area of expertise, but Unity 3D and other game engines might work -- there's definitely some that work between iOS and Android, but I don't know about Windows Phone 7)
What tools(compilers/build tools, debugging tools, code editors) are available for such task?
Any text editor, PhoneGap/Build, etc.
