Introduction
Mobile development has been growing since the day Apple introduced iPhone. Mobile browser has never been so robust. It supports HTML5, CSS3 even with CSS animation. After that, Google introduced Android to join existing
iPhone app developers in ushering in the mobile platform era. That leave a significant mark to the milestone of mobile development.
