I have new app as a game . the game about home and products as TV Refrigerator LCD ..etc. so use can drag the product at the room on your home as if you are preparing your new home but this will be as a game and when user finished from completing his home he will like and share this on Facebook . this game will be app supported with all mobile platforms .So how can I do this solution I know java but I cannot imagine how can I do this.
The simplest answer is to write a web app. Every modern mobile device (probably) has a web browser. Two options for this: (I'm sure you can find dozens of tutorials on either)
Have your app sit somewhere on a website. Not too difficult once you have a website.
Deploy an executable. Try Googling something like "how to deploy an html5 executable". This looks like it may help.
If every required mobile device has a JVM (which I'll bet they don't), then you can write a single Java app that will work on all the devices.
There are programs designed specifically for this purpose, though I don't have the name of one on hand.

I've created a basic web-app which guides user to decide first programming language. I've created my project checking through Google Dev Tools iPhone6 view since I'm using iPhone6 also but in real iPhones appearance is not even look close. Is this annoyance only for me or for everyone also? or is there better way to design a web app for mobile? You should check difference from here https://ibb.co/Gcsjsvn and check my repo from https://github.com/kgokdemir/firstlang
I already have a website with huge database which is good for Desktop browser my site is on Joomla base. Now i want to develop for Smartphone (like iphone, android, nokia) and mobile browsers. So how can i achieve this goal what is the best way of doing this.
Mobile Sites like Yahoo, Youtube i want to developed something like this because i'm new to developing mobile sites so any one can suggest me the right way for developing the mobile version for my current Desktop Site.
Thanks in advance
There are extensions for Joomla that style your site for mobile usage here: http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/mobile.
It makes sense to test your site using the emulators for iPhone, Android and Symbian at some stage before you release. Each software development kit includes the ability to use the mobile browser.
Note that this is not the whole story. You'll want to consider:
Mobile users have much smaller displays. You'll need to rework your UI to take account of this.
Mobile users have large fingers. You'll need to rework your buttons and links to take account of this.
Mobile users tend to consume content rather than create it. Optimise accordingly.
Searching for data with e.g. traditional search boxes is tricky; you may need to rework to use scrolling through lists.
Above all: test, test, test!

I have an existing website running. I want this site to be able to be viewed on mobiles smart phones as well. I am ready to shave off some stuff, but would like to know how can I test this and are there any tools/guidelines on how to repurpose the site to be best viewed on mobile phones ? How to detect on the web site whether a mobile phone or a PC is hitting the site and accordingly serve the appropriate content.
There are few factors to consider such as:
- screen size
- touch vs non-touch
To detect whether the mobile phone hitting your site, you can simply verify the user agent.
There is a good article on this at A List Apart which will answer your implementation questions: Put Your Content in My Pocket
You can test by setting the user agent of your browser to that of mobile device. This can be done in safari under the develop settings, or firefox has various plugins.
And a tip, don't use anything that requires hover functionality. Touch screens don't hover.
You will find out it's a strange new world at http://mtld.mobi/
First decision you should make is which mobile platforms you want to support, then start coding...
As some one mentioned http://mtld.mobi/ is the best place to start for resources but for testing I would use http://ready.mobi that will test and debug your site and provide interface to viewing your website in mobile platforms.
First you need to decide what platforms/browsers you are going to support. If it is only smart phones like Android/Iphone/Blackberry it would be a pretty safe bet that as long as the website works in crome and isn't VERY javascript intensive and the site is catered for smaller screens it would be fine.
That is the theory in practise mobile is mobile and real world testing is the only way to go for 100% coverage.
With all the different mobile phone browsers and the mobile market being so diverse I'm having a hard time deciding on a way to create a text based online game for mobile phones.
I was thinking about using HTML / CSS / Javascript for front-end and Python CGI for server-side (with a DB).
Now this seems like a very obvious choice... BUT I'm having a hard time finding the "limits" to each one... by that I mean at what point will a popular web browser stop 'supporting' a technology. Like when it comes to HTML I assume you cant use HTML5 features in all popular mobile browsers... or maybe some allow JS but not jQuery... or maybe some don't allow some common CGI features or DOM is weird... I do not know.
I have read a few different tutorials on various mobile web browser development but nothing really helps to answer my question.
So what I'm asking is basically:
What languages/technologies do you recommend for a Text based mobile online multiplayer turn based browser game that will need to dynamically load a lot of info?(front front end to back end)
What are some common limitations between popular mobile web browsers I should look out for? I want to be compatible with all popular mobile web browsers.
One of the things to keep in mind is that there is a plethora of mobile browsers out there (Look here for details). So you are probably better off starting with iphone, android and blackberry and maaaybe opera mini browser support. These browsers have sophisticated java script support and you would be able to provide a good user experience. Later on you can work on supporting other mobile browsers.
Regarding your questions, if you look at these browser specs (and they are readily available on Internet) you will see that you will be able to use quite a bit of web technologies (HTML, CSS, Javascript, etc). That wont be a showstopper for you. Designing for a small screen, and a great user experience on small screens, that will make or break your game.
I am working as a junior developer at the moment , I have good and growing skills in PHP , MySql , Javascript as well as XHTML & CSS.
I got asked at work today "How can we use our web app on a Iphone or similar product ?"
SO what I need to know is:
Do I build mobile site for our exciting site and make it fit the screens of a mobile device .
or
Do I build a Application ?
If I was to build an application what languages are used to typically build an App whats similar to a website in terms in MySql database etc
Building a mobile site is probably the quickest way to get on all the phones, and will be easier to maintain that several native app codebases. That's the route I took for some internal tools that need to be accessible by iPhone and Blackberry users.
Your Javascript, HTML, and CSS skills will serve you well there. If you go for native apps you'll need to learn other languages like Objective-C. (Of course, picking up new languages is part of the fun.)
Depending on the phone, native apps can give you some distinct advantages. It's just a matter of whether or not you need those features.
