day -10: Website in the Works
Daily stories from the ambadoo team, behind the scenes, dev-stats and other random stuff.
Website In the Works
For you who’ve followed ambadoo know that ambadoo.com has been static, very static. The current site is a temporary old one that we put up when we realized the other was broke. The old site was connected to the application that we removed, hence, broken.
It’s been hanging there, waiting for the real thing to happen and was never meant to do any magic more than saying Hello World.
We’re re-building the site from _blank. It was time to hot it up and actually explain what we’re doing a little bit more in-depth this time.
Web App, Hot.
We’ve good flow in the Web App development now with lots of small goodies implemented. Some UI stuff, like maps on addresses but the more interesting part is in the Facebook integration, which is about to be really awesome!
We’re continue to fight against time on the iPhone development. Things are harder, and takes more time than we’re hoping but we’re making progress and by the end of this week we should have reach 100% functionality for this version. That might be only 5% of what we’re imagine we’d like to implement but it’s the five most important percentages.
This is a web app, not a native. It’s stunning what you can create with HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript and some php programming. However, there are things that you can’t do from a web app and where native are still superior. We’ll continue to develop both to take advantage of what the two platforms has to offer.
