Learning SQLite for iOS

By: Gene Da Rocha

Overview of this book

The ability to use SQLite with iOS provides a great opportunity to build amazing apps. Apple's iOS SDK provides native support for SQLite databases. This combination offers the potential to create powerful, data-persistent applications. This book starts with the architecture of SQLite database and introduces you to concepts in SQL . You will find yourself equipped to design your own database system, administer it, and maintain it. Further, you will learn how to operate your SQLite databases smoothly using SQL commands. You will be able to extend the functionality of SQLite by using its vast arsenal of C API calls to build some interesting, exciting, new, and intelligent data-driven applications. Understand how Xcode, HTML5, and Phonegap can be used to build a cross-platform modern app which can benefit from all these technologies - all through creating a complete, customizable application skeleton that you can build on for your own apps.

An HTML5 framework


Functionality, like memory allocation and usage, animations, and a variety of other options, will define what a good HTML5 framework is. This framework does offer good access to mobile phone devices, such as the camera, or some other internal information that only a native app could previously access. These factors go far in deciding the type of framework to use.

Just because some frameworks or JavaScript libraries are popular in one area does not necessarily mean they are not required in another. For example, the jQuery JavaScript framework is very popular due to many programmers having used it in the past for large or small projects.

It will be difficult for an end user to distinguish native and HTML5 development when the app is running. However, the way it is installed will determine whether it is a web or native app. Not that it matters to the end user, but users expect a great look and feel, richness in technology, easy and quick navigation, and that the app actually...
