Thus, web designers and developers can use a great part of their skills to develop mobile applications. Cross-platform application development involves using HTML5, JavaScript and open source libraries such as jQuery or jQtouch. In native mobile application development, programming languages such as Java (for Android) or Objective C (for iOS) have to be used to develop both the user interface and logic for the applications. Apart from native SDK‟s and tools available for some of the main mobile operating systems (Android, iOS, etc), there are many open source SDK‟s and tools that allow the development of cross-platform applications in which the developed code can run with little or no change in more than one mobile OS. A wide range of tools and Software Development Kits (SDKs) are available to develop these applications. Mobile applications can be broadly classified into three categories namely native, mobile-web and Hybrid applications.
