Exploring Mobile Web Apps, day 1

Tonight I cracked open jQTouch and started poking around. First let me say that this thing is incredible. It’s really impressive. It’s almost hard to believe that it’s only jQuery and CSS3, but it’s really impressive. From Jonathan Stark’s talk I knew he had a textmate bundle, so I picked that up and started messing around with the basic structure of the setup. After not even an hour, I created this page (only looks cool on the iPhone) that pulls my latest 10 posts into a iphone app style page.

The cube transition happens by applying the class “cube” to a link. Yes, it really is that easy.

I’ll post more when I start digging in, for now I’m going to play my xbox and go to bed.
