I found a linked Font awesome kit in an old project. Like:
<script src="https://use.fontawesome.com/xxxxxxxxxx.js"></script>
I can only find two icons in the code. Is there a way to preview all the icons from that kit? I could not find any information on their webpage to preview the kit without an account.
i have created my Mobile application with Jquery mobile now i want it to deploy
now how should i deploy across platforms like and android Iphone etc.,
Phone Gap looks promising but it is confusing plus it looks like i have to re code stuff again
please Help
Thanks
jQuery mobile framework provides tools for mobile UI. It is used in combination with standard web application backends. Such applications are deployed on web servers! If you want to make hybride apps you can use PhoneGap, that's right.
PhoneGap projects use an open packaging model that follows the W3C Widget Packaging specification. You have to adjust your project according to the specifications or simply deploy it as a web application on a web server.
I just started developing wp8 apps coming from android. What is the equivalent UI control for an app drawer (android) to be able to quickly change from page to page? I'm looking for the control used to change from page to page in OneNote
EDIT: I found out that Windows phone 8.1 offers flyouts which can be made to look like an app drawer.
The equivalent to the android app drawer is probably the windows phone appbar, but the appbar in windows phone is not used for navigation - only settings like actions.
In windows phone, navigation is done primarily through your own interface, with heavy use of the BACK button to go to previous pages. The main class you use in windows phone is the NavigationService
I don't believe the OneNote uses standard UI components, so you would probably have to create your own
There are plenty of solid resources online that should help. Start here:

Since chrome apps have all of their code included already in the package, does that mean I have to download twitter's entire sharing button api, or is there a better way to include social buttons in these?
jQuery Mobile and PhoneGap both appear to be targeting cross-browser mobile development based on HTML5, but what are the major differences between the two?
What are the Pros and Cons of each framework?
Why would you choose one over the over?
Simply put jQuery Mobile is a UI toolkit for building mobile web applicaitons.
PhoneGap is a JavaScript framework which allows you to access native device functionality like the camera, contacts, file system, etc. PhoneGap does not provide UI elements.
If you want to create a hybrid mobile app, one which is built using HTML5 but runs on a device like a native app, you would not choose one over the other. You'd use both.
JQuery mobile is a javascript library for mobile broswing (mostly adapt the user-interface for better user experience on mobile devices)
Phonegap is a cross-platform development framework that provides core mobile device features to web-based mobile apps (Extracted from here)
Basically, you cannot use phonegape to take pictures from a website, but you can build an app with HTML and javascript (Phonegap) that access to some features in the mobile.
By the way you can use both in the same application: link
JQM is just a javascript framework, gives you some UI controls, animations and manages page navigation for you.
It's still a javascript webpage, so you don't actually have anything compiled in the end. Because of this your users access it using their BROWSER pointing to a URL, just like a normal website (only those are called Web-Apps in iOS language).
PhoneGap is just a Native project (written for all major Mobile hardware, like iOS, Android, BB, WP7, etc...) that wraps a WebView control (basically a browser window) inside an app. You could include your .js/.html files, and those would be loaded LOCALLY. Another feature of PhoneGap is a jscript bridge between your code and the phone's native capabilities (like for example taking a picture from javascript!).
You end up with a NATIVE APPLICATION that you can then post to the AppStore/AndroidMarket.
Hope this helps clarifying the difference.
