Chapter 8. Deploying the Project on iOS, Android, and Raspberry Pi

In the previous chapters, we developed an openFrameworks project for a desktop computer (OS X, Windows, or Linux). But, as you may know, openFrameworks is implemented on most popular mobile platforms, including iOS, Android, and Raspberry Pi devices. So in this chapter, we will dig into mobile development with openFrameworks; running our video synthesizer project on all these devices.

Mobile platforms have some specifics, so things such as shaders must be elaborated when porting from a desktop project to a mobile project. To have more fun, we will consider not the final, but a simpler version of our video synthesizer project. We will use the video synthesizer developed in Chapter 3, Adding a GUI and Handling Keyboard Events; it consists of Pattern Generator (matrix) and a GUI panel. This synthesizer is simple, yet still powerful enough to demonstrate basic capabilities of openFrameworks for mobiles.

We will have a look at the...
