DESCRIPTION
There's an app for that! Well, at least one is on it's way to Android 4 (ICS) devices. In this presentation I show you the upcoming Joomla! client "Chimoora" and what it means to bring the experience of a Joomla! powered website to mobile devices in general. The first version of Chimoora will support Joomla! featured articles (Blogs) and Discussions (forum extension). Marketplace (classified ads), Private Messages (now part of Discussions) and more will follow. Both sides, the native Android app and the API on the server (Joomla! extension) are covered in this presentation.
