The workshop started with a small introduction about the company delivered by
Mr Pradeep Rao from Research in Motion.
Second spokesperson was Mr Alan Wong who had specially come down from HongKong
to give a handsOn experience of the BB Playbook.
The BB Playbook tablet is a powerful machine with its OS built over the QNX technology,
the OS promises powerful multitasking capabilities and is powered by 1Ghz dual core
processer(make not disclosed) with 1Gb ram.
It has got Flash 10.1 support and a HD display with HDMI port. Rear camera is 5mp while
3mp at the front, and records video at 720p which is lower than that of
Galaxy tab 2(1080p HD recording).
To develop apps on the Playbook and other BB devices there are several options as follows:-
1) Adobe AIR
2) BB Webworks
3) Native SDK
4) Browser development -> HTML5, Flash 10.1 and CSS3.
1) Adobe AIR
-> Uses Flex(SDK) based on the Adobe Flash platform.
-> MXML is used for designing the UI/Front end.
-> Interactivity is achieved through the use of ActionScript.
-> FlashBuilder is the IDE required for developing using Flex and also BB Tablet OS SDK is required to build apps for BB.
-> Apps developed using Flex can be ported to BB, android and iPhone devices.
2) BB webworks
-> It is supported on BB v5.0 onwards.
-> Involves development using HTML5, CSS and JavaScript.
-> Simply we need to design UI in HTML5 and use javascript for interactivities, ZIP all the files and with the issue of a command(bbwp.zip) u get the .bar file generated to be deployed on the BB device.
