QtWebKit on mobile phones (hybrid applications)

stenlik

Hi,

Is anyone using the QtWebKit to render the web content on Nokia devices (so called hybrid applications)? If yes, do you use some framework like Sencha Touch or jQuery Mobile or other to make the oupput better with less effort, the development easier and the result more cross-platform (Safari x Chrom x QtWebKit)?

Thanks a lot for answers or comments.
Kind Regards,
STeN

Dont know about mobile platform but I did on Desktop and other embedded not used any framework you are referring. So I think no any framework really required.

Hi,

framework is not necessary as long as you are developing only for QtWebKit, but once you come to the cross-browser compatibility there are many issues, which you must handle on your own... And just see e.g. Kitchen Sink example (http://dev.sencha.com/deploy/touch/examples/kitchensink/) on iPad or desktop Safari. This you can do with ST framework quite quickly + the "objective" JavaScript engine allows you derive own components relatively easily, so I guess using such a framework makes many things easier, even it is not necessary...
