I'm trying to use SimpleMembershipProvider to manage the authentication process of my mobile application.
I generated the project using Mobile template, but this doesn't generated the same files of the Internet application template. It doesn't created the folder Filters with InitializeSimpleMembershipAttribute.cs file and the web.config, AccountController and AccountModel are different.
Can I use SimpleMembershipProvider with mobile applications? If yes, how should I do this? If not, what is the alternative?
You can use the SimpleMembershipProvider in your mobile application. This article provides complete instructions on how to do this and provide links to an example VS project that can be downloaded.

I am starting new project with angularjs with webapi. This project will be e-commerce site. There is iOS and Android app also. We are going to develop APIs so that Android and iOS team can consume our APIs. Also we are going to consume APIs using angularjs for web application. I need some inputs before starting project. I am planning to design separate solutions for APIs and my web application. I am using visual studio for development environment for front end. I am confused about which template should I use in vs2015 to develop front end? My front-end will contains angular js files,HTML pages and CSS files. Second point is there is a Arabic version of this website so I am storing all Arabic words in resource file. Where should I store my resource files? In API project or front end project? May I get some inputs to develop solution architecture? Also what is the standard way of angularjs project folder structure? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
is it possible to create web application using ionic or is it only for mobile ? what is the difference between Angular and Ionic
You can definitely do it. However, it's probably not advisable. Ionic just provides a bunch of directives for you to use. You can use that in conjunction with something like Cordova/Phonegap to package that up for a mobile release. Otherwise, you could just take the web parts of the project (i.e. all your html/js/css/assets) and point a web server to them and presto - you can access your ionic page with a browser.
However...
You probably don't want to do this for a few reasons.
Ionic wasn't written to target desktop pages
Ionic doesn't really provide anything for desktop pages that A. doesn't already exist in Angular or B. someone hasn't properly written for desktop solutions
My suggestion here is to just use plain Angular or another framework such as React/Vue.
To answer the last part of your question: Angular is the framework that Ionic provides bindings (and some assets such as icons) for. Those bindings happen to be optimised/targetted towards mobile devices.
Hopefully that helps out a bit.
I am trying to develop a mobile app on Wakanda v11 starting with prototyping my page,test run it and try to build the prototyped page into an .apk file but all the system does is building the sample application in the mobile folder.
Any suggestion as how to proceed?
If you want to create a mobile app you must create it in the mobile folder in Wakanda Studio.
Today, there is no prototyping tool inside Wakanda to do a mobile app.
But you can use ionic creator to prototype your mobile app. When you have done that, you could integrate it in the Wakanda mobile folder.
There is a tutorial that can help you here : tutorial to create a first mobile app with Wakanda
If you want to create a native mobile application so you can generate the .apk, you should use Ionic/Cordova/Angular, by developing you application in the 'mobile' folder. you can follow the example set by default.
To access to database you can use the Angular/Wakanda connector : Docs
The prototype application cannot generate an .apk file
I needed some inputs on mobile apps.
Query: I have an existing web application on AEM(angularJS is not used). I want to transform the same on Mobile app using AEM6.1
While reading through the documentation section of AEM Apps, I found that the mobile App built on AEM
- works on the terminology and AngularJS framework.
- mobile App has different paths and app structure as compared to AEM web Applications
-since, phonegap has to be used, relative path needs to be different than the same of web application.
I am in a dilemma as If I would be able to convert my existing web app into a mobile App or not. If anyone of you has done some research on this, it would be very helpful.
Thanks in advance!!!

You can very well convert your AEM desktop application to a mobile app(site should be responsive).
AEM makes use of Cordova (PhoneGap) and ContentSync framework to create apps for both android and iOS. More about how to config ContentSync here. In simple terms, ContentSync packages your application(/content, /apps, /etc,...) based on defined set of configurations and cordova(phonegap) helps you access native phone capabilities and to create the archive file (apk/ipa). There is more than one way to create an app using AEM.
1. Using Cordova CLI :
You setup a cordova project in your filesystem. Then create contentsync configuration for your AEM project. Generate and download the application archive from here. Cordova project you had setup earlier will have the below folder structure.
Place the contents of archive file inside www folder, modify config.xml according your application and initiate build. Using this method, you will require an Apple system to generate .ipa file since it makes use of xcode and windows makes use of npm node js for the initial dev env setup.
2. Using OOTB 'Initiate phonegap build' workflow and AEM cloud config
This is an easy approach and does not require you to setup any cordova project in your system. All you have to do is setup contentsync configuration, add a few properties for the workflow to recognise your project and then trigger the workflow. Follow this.
3. Using Apps console in AEM 6.1
This also makes use of ContentSync underneath. Apps console makes the app very easy to maintain and configure, it also has inbuilt configurations for push notification, deep linking etc. Go through the info here. Refer to the sample geometrixx-outdoors project created in apps console, will help you understand better.
PS: Cordova and phonegap are the same. You can think of Cordova as Linux kernel and PhoneGap as linux distribution.
Looking at the example here: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E18941_01/tutorials/buildmobileappscontent/adfmobiletutorial_1.html
Would doing something like this end up creating a package app(like an APK on android), or a mobile application. If not, can I create a native(ish) app with Oracle ADF? And if so, can I easily create a mobile app from a pre-existing web ADF app?
No, you can't use a pre-existing web ADF app to create a mobile app.
You can however reuse parts of it, for example by exposing your model. It also uses the same concepts (like task flows) so the learning curve is low if you know ADF.
The end-result of your ADF Mobile application will be an .apk (Android) or .ipa (iOS) so yes, you get a native application.
Note: ADF Mobile is 'deprecated' (= will not get any updates/fixes). The product has been rebranded to MAF (Mobile Application Framework) and has lots of improvments compared to the version you are using.
