  2. Disclaimer • Even if widelyused in the past and still in use for some applications, Oracle Application Express (APEX) is not the main GS-AIS DevelopmentTool. • This presentationisbasedmostly on personalexperience made with the tooloutside AIS main scope (i.e. Open Daystools)

  3. Mobile Apps If youneed a database intensive application available to a maximum number of mobile OSthen APEX Mobile Web Apps is the right choice.

  4. Tim Berner-Lees on Mobile Apps “If you don't give it a URL, people can't tweet about it. If people can't tweet or email about it, then it's not part of the discourse.” cnet.com, March 2014

  5. jQuery Mobile • APEX integratesjQueryforimprovingJavascript useandsupportAJAX requests • jQuery mobile is a frameworkbuilton top of jQuery • Simplisticpage structure • Comeswithbunch of predefinedCSS styles • Veryconstraintful but guaranteesnative-like look and feel

  10. My experience • Desktop and Mobile versions of a web applicationare 2 verydifferent web applications!Don’ttry to adaptexistingscreensfrom Desktop to Mobile. • Desktop UI = many data / few clicks • Mobile UI = few data / many clicks • Tablets are somewhere in between • Keep as much business logic in DB(thisistrue for all APEX applications) • ReusewhatjQuery mobile offers: http://demos.jquerymobile.com • Whentestingrunapp in new tab
