Building A PhoneGap App In 36 Seconds Using Nothing But A Browser

Update: TJ Vantoll saw this and was not impressed, so he decided he could do it faster using the CLI. He’s got it down to 10 seconds.

So fast I put it in a GIF.

Full Disclosure

• This was done using Telerik AppBuilder
• I used the web based IDE (ST2, Visual Studio and NPM versions available)
• I did NOT speed up the screen capture
• I DID visit every page prior to recording to make sure everything that could be cached was
• I DID practice this a bunch of times
• I DID use the AppBuilder Companion application to run the app. This was pre-installed on my phone
