PhoneGap Experience

Can I believe that, I can 开发者_如何学Pythondevelop an app with HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript and then compile it with PhoneGap for Android, iOS and Win Phone 7?

Does this work?

PhoneGap's platform support is quite well documented:
http://www.phonegap.com/about/features/

For the most part, yes ... though the individual feature support is still coming up in some platforms. edit: previously this mentioned that windows phone wasn't supported yet, this is now a fully supported platform :-) http://phonegap.com/2011/12/20/phonegap-for-windows-phone-getting-started/

As far as how to create the packages for each individual platform, by default if doing things locally you'll have to integrate the phonegap bits into a project and compile it using that platform's build tools manually. However, they are working on a service called PhoneGap Build that will automatically create packages for each platform on your behalf:

For readers from the future, full Windows Phone 7 support in PhoneGap is working now.

Windows Phone 7 support will, hopefully, come later this year. ;)

Yes, it does and you should check out their PhoneGap Build which is a cloud offering. It's an open source product and the available technical documentation is currently growing.

Here's a primer on the topic.
