Very cool! I did iOS and Android, and then it was time to confront Windows Phone. After messing with installing and putting my files into Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2013 for way too many hours, I decided to give Telerik Platform a try. I created an account and a project, copied my files in, and bingo! I had a Windows Phone app in less than an hour. I’m running in the emulator, next step is to build and get a friend with a Windows Phone to give her a try. (And fix the fonts.) Thanks Darren for the tip!
Okay I got it onto a phone. It works pretty well except for three issues:
-
The font/icon problem others have discussed.
-
My HTML 5 range sliders don’t have thumb-grabs! And I’ve got a bunch of them … need to solve this. However, if you touch anywhere on the slider it changes the value. Android does this too, but not iOS.
-
The vertical scrolling is difficult. Flicking works pretty good but dragging not so much.
BTW mine is a single-page app with vertical scrolling. It started out as a bottom-tabbed app but then I realized it would work better as a single page, so it is still structured like the bottom-tabbed app example. Screen shot attached. (If you want to compare to Android, get ixSplitZ from the Play store.)
