We have implemented a tvOS app, its in App Store. Now we would like to introduce some HTML5 games in our app as a feature. We already have HTML5 games so we don't have to implement newly.
So how to include these games in my app. We got to know that we can't use WebKit in tvOS.
Is it possible to use HTML5 based code in our tvOS apps ?
If not possible is there any alternative way like 3rd parties or any tools which will convert HTML5 so that we can use ?
Is there any better way that we can implement HTML5 kind of games ?
Unfortunately there is no way to use html in this manner on tvOS, and there is no tool to just transfer html to swift since they are fundamentally different.
You can use some wrapper like Cordova https://cordova.apache.org/ to deploy your html projects as native. It could be deployed on iOS or Android.

As we know, flutter can call Android or iOS api by plugin, I had written some widgets, Android and iOS native widgets, can I use those widgets in flutter, just like in react native. Thanks.
The simple answer is NO
Flutter completely bypasses the iOS and Android OEM control pipeline and draws the entire screen as a Skia canvas, with its own dart UI widgets.
There is no mechanism to mix the flutter canvas with OEM controls
If you are looking for App Widgets that are shown on android desktop, then it is possible to implement such Widgets with native code and use it with flutter.
I'll not completely deny that it is not possible to bridge between native widget and flutter's dart code, but I can say the possibility is yet to be discovered.
Here is the simple App Widget created natively and used with flutter.
If you wanted to look into the source code, and build app from source. Here it is.
Hope that helped!
Yes, you can.
With https://api.flutter.dev/flutter/widgets/AndroidView-class.html (Android) and https://api.flutter.dev/flutter/widgets/UiKitView-class.html (iOS)
Google is using this two Widgets to render WebViews and Maps on those platforms.
See: https://pub.dev/packages/webview_flutter and https://pub.dev/packages/google_maps_flutter
It is definitely not easy to use, but it is possible.
Seen many posts on this around the web but no nearer finding out if it's possible to do...
Have seen http://www.webqr.com/ recommended but I tried uploading the .zip from github (https://github.com/LazarSoft/jsqrcode) for this to phonegap and the compiled app fails on android with "Sorry, native web camera streaming (getusermedia) is not supported by this browser"
Well, I'm not trying to use the webcam really, I want to access the camera on the phone/ipad if possible.
Is it actually possible to do this from HTML5 or does it require a proper native app? (so xcode for the ipad app I have in mind)
I've also seen some plugins for "phonegap" (as opposed to phonegap build) which would also require a mac/xcode so that's not the angle I want to approach it from as I'm trying to do this all from windows if possible.
This may help. it a js plugin. search the phonegap plugin page for 'scanners'

I'm thinking of creating a HTML5 app, which I also want to run well on iOS. I'm thinking of using parse.com as the backend, but apart from that I'm a little unsure where to start, can I use Adobe Dreamweaver with Parse? are there better options for creating a HTML5 app?
Thanks for any advice.
From looking at the Parse documentation, there aren't any specific tools to help you work with Parse in DreamWeaver.
If you're looking for a high-quality IDE for developing HTML5 and CSS3, see this question about open source HTML5/CSS3 IDEs.
Parse has blank XCode (for iOS), blank Android project (should work in Eclipse), and basic HTML5 project listed in their QuickStart guide. With the blank HTML5 project you can use any IDE you want to do the editing, and then open it in your browser to test it out.
I am developing a web app that will stream videos to a user, and the user will interact with the videos, for example recognize events on a specific timestamp, and then possibly store that in a database along with the video. I am going on with HTML5 because it is new, and compatible with tablets and smartphones. (iPad etc etc..). My question is that, does HTML5 offers this kind of customization ? or is it done only on Flash? And is there like a specific API Documentation about HTML5 video ?
(It will be all based on ruby on rails, but I don't see how that matters)
There are possibility’s to customize with JavaScript. But I would recommend to use an already made one
I'm not too familiar with HTML5 so does anyone know if HTML5 will be able to access NFC chips built into mobile devices? Or, can someone suggest another way to do this using some other method? My goal is to produce a cross platform HTML5 web app that can access NFC functionality on NFC equipped phones. I have looked into mobile frameworks like PhoneGap but although they have NFC on their roadmap, they do not have any timelines nor implementation details to offer.
Thanks.
NFC access via some proprietary framework may be possible, but I don't think it's currently built into the HTML 5 spec itself.
PhoneGap uses HTML5 for the main UI of the mobile application, and then takes specific code that you write (javascript API I think), which is then translated into native code for each of the mobile devices it is ported to. So, one option you have is building your main UI in HTML5, and then displaying that in a WebView or equivalent inside a native application, then accessing NFC specific features via the native application and passing it to your webapp via a dynamic URL like http://mysampleapp.com/NFC/somestringofdatafromthenfcthatiwillparsetouseinmyhtml5app
If you are using Phonegap 3.0 and the Cordova CLI you can easily integrate RFID reading capabilities through NFC by using Chariot Solutions Phonegap NFC plugin from Github and following the steps laid out by Øystein Heimark/Dogu in the referenced blog post.
