Event details

Date:: 17 April 2012, 00:00–00:00 Coordinated Universal Time
Location:: Lyon, France
Speakers:: Dominique Hazaël-Massieux and Frances de Waal
Website:: W3C Tutorial Track, 21st International World Wide Web Conference (WWW2012)

Participants to the tutorial will learn how to build applications for mobile devices using Web technologies. We will first focus on what makes it different to use the Web on mobile devices compared to computers: the specific constraints of these devices, as well as their increasing specific advantages.

We will then learn how to work around these constraints to provide a good user experience on mobile devices.

The tutorial will then look at how to exploit all the specificities of the mobile user experience, via JavaScript APIs, touch interactions, camera integration, etc.
