PhoneGap allows developers to write mobile apps using web technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript instead of native languages. It works by wrapping web content in a native container so apps can access device capabilities and be distributed through app stores. PhoneGap was created in 2009 by Nitobi and later donated to the Apache Foundation, becoming known as Cordova. While PhoneGap and Cordova are often used interchangeably, Cordova is the open source engine that powers PhoneGap. Using PhoneGap offers benefits like reusing web skills, shorter learning curves, and faster development.

Editor's Notes
- #2: Lets have a lesure understanding about phonegap
- #3: PhoneGap is a free and open source framework that allows you to create mobile apps using standardized web APIs for the platforms you care about.
- #4: Easily create apps using the web technologies you know and love:HTML,?CSS, and?JavaScript
- #5: It doesn¡¯t force developers to reinvent the wheel every time they move from platform to platform.
- #7: .
- #8: Apache Cordova and Adobe PhoneGap easily make confuse between names
- #10: PhoneGap provides an application programming interface (API) that enables you to access native operating system functionality using JavaScript. You build your application logic using JavaScript, and the PhoneGap API handles communication with the native operating system.
- #11: PhoneGap applications are developed using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, however the final product of a PhoneGap application is a binary application archive that can be distributed through standard application ecosystems. or iOS applications the output is an?IPA file) (iOS Application Archive), for Android applications the output is an?APK file) (Android Package), for Window Phone the output is a?XAP?file (Application Package),
- #12: PhoneGap is not a ¡°native application development¡± framework, even though it provides access through several device features using an abstraction layer, which otherwise are inaccessible to a normal webpage. In simple words, it provies a ¡°WebView¡± with extended capabilities. Using PhoneGap one can access the following device features: Camera,Geolocation,Compass,Contacts,Media,Accelerometer,Network
