# MAD9014 - Cross-Platform App Development

Course Description

While developing native applications for mobile devices holds many advantages, not every application requires direct access to native capabilities and there are many ways web developers can build applications using the programming skills they already possess. Students use HTML, CSS and Javascript to build applications which can quickly be deployed to multiple mobile platforms, such as iPhone and Android. Designing to conserve battery life is introduced as a concept in this course. Using mobile marketplaces to publish and market applications is introduced.
