Presentation Abstract

Learn how to build native mobile apps using a combination of ASP.NET (Web Services), jQueryMobile (UI), KnockoutJS (MVVM), MassiveDB (Data Access), and PhoneGap (Mobile Platform). In this fast paced session we’ll create a Craigslist competitor for mobile devices combining the phone’s GPS, camera, and network capabilities. Technologies covered will include HTML, Javascript, and C#. All source code and resources will be made available online.
