Ionic Component Library. 259 Index. 263 Table of Contents | ix Foreword In 2013, our small team was then one year into working on drag-and-drop developer tools for the two most popular mobile and desktop web frameworks at the time: jQuery Mobile and Bootstrap. We saw the rapid rise of reusable components and frameworks for web development, and we were working hard to make it easier to use them through better and more inclusive tooling. Around this time, the iPhone 5 came out, followed shortly by iOS 7, with dramati‐ cally faster web performance and new web APIs that unlocked previously inaccessible performance and features for mobile browser apps. We wondered: could a web framework be built that took advantage of this new performance to provide a native- like UI kit for web developers to build native-quality apps with standard browser technologies? A “Bootstrap for mobile,” if you will? Coincidently, Angular 1 was seeing incredible adoption in the broader web develop‐ ment space and seemed to provide a perfect answer for reusable JavaScript and HTML components for the web. We decided to try our hand at building a mobile- first web UI framework, using the fast-growing Angular 1 framework to make it interactive and distributable. The first release of Ionic, at the end of 2013, was met with excitement from web developers, and the project quickly accumulated stars on GitHub and installs on npm. Over the next year and a half, the project saw over one million apps built by startups, dev shops, and enterprise users alike. Then in 2015, JavaScript seemingly evolved overnight. Suddenly, ES5, the JavaScript we all knew from the web 2.0 era, was old news. In its place was ES6, the next genera‐ tion of JavaScript complete with major new features for object-oriented development, sharing and loading modules, easier syntax, and a whole lot more. The JavaScript world was turned upside down as browser runtimes and developers alike struggled to keep up with the rapid transition to ES6.

    The Mobile Operating Systems Analysis 2012- 2017: Who wins: Android vs. iOS vs. Windows? 4.4.5 Middle East and Africa Mobile OS Sales Forecast 2012-2017 Dominated by the Symbian platform in 2012, visiongain believes that Android will pick up where the incumbent leaves off. Smart device sales in the MEA region will inevitably be driven by low- cost Android handsets from OEMs such as Huawei, ZTE, HTC, and Motorola. Windows and iOS will have a more pronounced impact on the Middle Eastern market than the African one, with higher sales volumes in countries such as Israel, the UAE, Bahrain, and Saudi Arabia. Visiongain forecasts this region to have relatively low smart device penetration in 2017, reaching sales of just over 107 million units that year. See Figure 4.31 and Table 4.25.

Games research firm Newzoo reckons roughly one-third of the planet’s population – that’s 2.6 billion people – will play mobile games this year. That number is projected to grow to 2.7 billion by 2021. Many are gaming fans, and many more are part of a new and captive audience forced by global events to practice social distancing and use their downtime to seek digital distractions. The outcome is a "bonanza" for gaming apps, an industry sure to experience a windfall of profits despite the tailwinds of a potential global recession. Overall, mobile gaming revenues are now set to top $100 billion this year, according to the latest data from app market intelligence provider App Annie and global research firm IDC. In total, the research concludes, mobile game spending will grow to more than 2.8x over desktop gaming and 3.1x more than home game consoles. ● Mobile gaming is the fastest growing segment and will account for 48% of all gaming revenues in 2020, up 13% from the previous year, thanks to blockbuster hits, including Fortnite, League of Legends and Pokémon Go.

In the 1980s, mobile cellular devices weighed over two pounds, were about the size of a brick, and cost close to $1,000. And they could be used for one thing: phone calls. Fast forward to 2012: In the fourth quarter of 2012, consumers worldwide bought approximately 217 million smartphones, which weigh about four ounces and fit in the palm of the hand. Consumers derive enormous benefits from these devices, which are used to make audio and video phone calls, buy movie tickets, check traffic on the regular commute, browse a digital library while waiting for an appointment, and connect with friends for spontaneous get-togethers.

  • Crosswalk Shared Mode

    Crosswalk Shared Mode

    Crosswalk Shared Mode This document aims to provide features description, build configuration, tools integration and the details of new embedding APIs for shared mode. Summary Feature Description Version Check Mechanism Architecture Independent Security Check Built­in Updater Tools Integration Enable Shared mode Configure the download URL Embedding API Permissions XWalkActivity XWalkInitializer XWalkUpdater 1. Summary Shared mode allows multiple Crosswalk applications to share one Crosswalk runtime. Each Crosswalk application is bundled with a reflection layer instead of the full library files, whereas there would be one and only one APK of Crosswalk runtime to be installed on the device for the Crosswalk applications to use. Figure: Embedded Mode vs. Shared Mode The APK of Crosswalk runtime is published on Google Play Store and Crosswalk Project’s official website. The end­users are able to get the APK via Google Play Store or the developer’s self­hosting service. The Crosswalk runtime will be upgraded periodically to introduce the latest feature of Crosswalk and Chromium. The developer has the responsibility to follow up the update cycle and keep their applications compatible with the latest version of Crosswalk runtime. Pros: ● Produces a significant smaller APK size for Crosswalk applications. For example of packaging a simple HelloWorld web application, the APK file size is 20MB for ARM and 23MB for x86. If the same contents is packaged in shared mode, the APK file size will shrink to 68KB. ● The Crosswalk application built in shared mode can run on both of the IA and ARM devices, even the application built in embedded mode for ARM can run on the IA devices, as long as there is a Crosswalk runtime installed on the device.
