Summary


I don't know about you, but I'm exhausted. I really don't think there's any more that can be said about jQuery Mobile or its supporting technologies at this time. You've got examples on how to build things for a whole host of industries, and ways to deploy it through either the Web or PhoneGap Build. At this point, you should be quoting Bob the Builder. "Can we build it? Yes, we can!"

I hope this book has assisted and/or inspired you to go make something great. I hope you change the world and get filthy stinking rich doing it. I'd love to hear your success stories as you move forward. To let me know how you're doing, or to let me know of any errata, or even if you just have some questions, please don't hesitate to email me directly at . Now, go be brilliant!
