One of the finest news recently has been the announcement of jQuery Mobile Metro theme for WP7. The nice folks at Windows Phone Interoperability Bridges and Sergei Grebnov have released that (also available as a Nuget package) last week.
I immediately thought that this is one of the things that should be definitely checked out – after all jQuery Mobile is a wonderful technology for building robust mobile applications – and jQuery Mobile Metro seems to have so much potential! Coupled with Apache Cordova (formerly PhoneGap), it allows us to quickly and easily brew a mobile application that can be deployed to any platform. What happens with Cordova, is that you build your application with HTML5, CSS and Javascript – and then it’s packaged into an environment specific package and run as if it was a native application (using an embedded browser control). Things couldn’t be any easier.
