| The first .NET HTML5 Mobile Framework preview is out |
| EnterpriseMobile provides a classic .NET development paradigm within Visual Studio for building HTML5 mobile applications and extending enterprise IT to the post PC era. |
.NET HTML5 Mobile |
| It is optimized for Enterprise Mobility and the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) trend as the framework produces totally secured cross platform and cross device HTML5 applications that doesn't expose any data on the device. It also provides a native mobile user experience such as gestures. On the roadmap are utilization of local device resources via PhoneGap (open source) integration and Citrix receiver, along with Form Factor and Device awareness and an HTML5 off-line feature that will ensure application availability even when there is no internet/network connectivity. |
