jQuery Mobile is a HTML5-based touch-optimised web framework. jQuery Mobile can be used to build responsive cross-platform websites and apps for a wide range of smartphones, tablets, and desktop devices. The jQuery Mobile framework can be integrated with other mobile app frameworks such as PhoneGap, IBM Worklight, and more.
Introduction to jQuery Mobile explains how to add the framework to your HTML pages to create rich, mobile-optimised web pages with minimal effort. You’ll learn how to use jQuery Mobile’s automatic enhancements and configure the framework for customised, powerful, mobile-friendly websites. We then dig into forms, events, and styling. You'll see how jQuery Mobile automatically enhances content, and you'll find out how to use the JavaScript API to build complex sites. We’ll introduce you to how jQuery Mobile can be themed as well as look into how JavaScript can be used for deep sets of customisations. The examples are ready to run and can be used to help kick-start your site. Along the way, you will leverage all the concepts you learn to build three sample mobile applications.
