Hack of The Week

In light of this weeks topic, Erick talks about one of his first Titanium project. Started out as a fun project to get to know Titanium and ended up being a very useful picture frame.

Need To Know

Use on both Windows and Mac OSX

NEED Mac for iOS apps.

Pros / Cons

Pro: one code base multi platform

Pro: JS [lang of the web] - you can start now

Pro: can be extended to include latest SDK features

Con: less control on system level things [mem]

Con: native sdk moves faster than Ti

Con: only iOS and Android for now [free]

How Do I Use It

Installation

Install native SDK first
