How to Build An iPhone Web App - Part 1
Posted at 2:45 PM by Cameron Westland in Tutorials
I've been trying to figure out what the best way to share some of the ideas we've been coming up with over the last few months. Instead of doing a bunch of case studies, or trying to get permission from some of our higher profile clients, we've decided to do a short series on how to build an iPhone web application.
This is a fairly broad discussion and we're going to try to slice horizontally across a lot of topics. Expression Engine, MySQL, iUI, Textmate, Ruby scripting, Deployment Issues, Mobile Optimization Techniques and more will be covered. Since we're giving these videos away for free, don't expect the polish that you'll find on sites like Peepcode or The Pragmatic Programmers. Instead, you'll find a candid and casual look into the world of Big Bang Technology, and how we develop.
Part 1 : Environment Setup
- Setting up a development environment
- Creating a MySQL Database
- Installing Expression Engine
- Setting up Virtual Hosts
- Creating a dynamic deployment configuration file for Expression Engine
The videos are all high resolution 1152 x 720 encoded in H.264.
I have not provided full transcripts for the content. Sorry about that.
