Tizen Web App sample files for Jo HTML5 app framework http://joapp.com

Jo Tizen Sample App

A simple app with a menu and a few sample cards built using the joCache feature to illustrate some simple features in Jo. See the full documentation at http://joapp.com including license (open source, FreeBSD).

Setup

1. Create a new blank Tizen Web App project in the IDE

   Menu: File -> New -> Tizen Web App Select: Tizen -> Basic Project name: Choose Test or whatever you like, so long as it's unique

2. Find the project files on your filesystem

   They should correspond to your IDE workspae folder.

3. Copy all the files in this zip into your project folder

   If asked, replace existing files (e.g. index.html)

4. From your Tizen IDE, right click on your project folder and select Refresh

   Make sure you see the js/jo folder (and the other files from the zip) in your project folders.

Testing

To test on the Web simulator

1. In the Tizen IDE, right click your project folder

2. Select Run As -> Tizen Web simulator Application

   Note that you most likely will need to change the zoom to view the entire device area on your screen.

To test on a device

If you have a test device, plug it in and it should show up in your IDE, and it should run or debug directly to it.

If you run with debug turned on, you'll have a full web inspector and debugger which you can use to see what's going on inside the app.

Troubleshooting

Try making a fresh Tizen Web App as above, but try to run it before copying over the Jo files. Then make sure your file copy works and that you refreshed the IDE's file list.

Porting to Tizen

Moving over your existing Jo app is relatively simple. Just copy your existing JS, CSS and HTML over to your Tizen web app project folder. Very similar to what you did to get this sample working.

Some notes

1. Make sure you get the latest source from GitHub for Jo (0.5.0+) from: http://github.com/davebalmer/jo or use the files from this zip.

2. Older CSS themes will not work with the Tizen native CSS scroller without updating; see above about getting latest/greatest.

3. Keep a copy of the index.html file provided in this zip, and pay special attention to the comments within. You may need to make corresponding tweaks to your project files (as you may have already with other platforms).

4. If you are using PhoneGap, your port should be pretty easy. If not, and your app accesses OS-specific APIs, you will want to get acquainted with the Tizen Web App API (very standards-based).
