Building Mobile Web Apps with Rick Strahl

Building Mobile Web Apps with Rick Strahl

Author: Carl Franklin and Richard Campbell August 6, 2014 Duration: 56:37
Carl and Richard chat with Rick Strahl about his latest efforts to build mobile web applications. The conversation starts out with a recap of the continuing debate about native vs web on mobile devices. As Rick says, there are no easy answers there. Every approach to cross-platform development (and different browsers on different phones represent different platforms) have compromises that need to be made. There is no "one size fits all" available. But the web continues to evolve, and Rick is optimistic that it is all coming together.
