Jo: Simple App Framework for HTML5

CSS, JavaScript | Posted by Keefr January 29th, 2013

This really seems like a winner. I need to take a few hours in a coming weekend to give it a try, to have enough familiarity with it to have in the back of my mind for a project that it would work with. It really seems too good to be true.

Their web site’s home page does a good job of boiling it down:

Jo was made for apps, not websites.
Your HTML5 app lives in a single page and Jo helps you create a native-like app experience. Sure, there’s some DOM manipulation going on in there, but you don’t have to worry about it unless you want to. Build your app with JavaScript, tweak some CSS and call it a day.

Came across this site several weeks ago, but have been just way too busy to get it posted.

Very useful and recommends when to avoid, when to use polyfills, etc.

HTML, Web Design, Web Development | Posted by Keefr November 2nd, 2012

A friend and co-worker has been experimenting a lot with the capabilities of the HTML5 Fullscreen mode and its full capabilities, and it’s pretty powerful and impressive in modern browsers. While I don’t have a link to share of the impressive project he’s working on, here’s a good overview of the fullscreen capabilities by our oft-used plugin provider, Longtail (makers of jwPlayer):
