Voila!

There is requirement when we want to load the external link inside our mobiapp. So to ease the process I have created a class that will help in achieving it. You just have to create an instance of it. That's it! var OpenOnInAppBrowser = function () { window.name = "projectname"; var iabRef = null; window.notifier = { flag: false, start: function() { if(!window.notifier.flag) { window.notifier.flag = true; navigator.notification.activityStart('Loading!', 'Please wait ...'); } }, stop: function() { window.notifier.flag = false; navigator.notification.activityStop(); } } var iabLoadStart = function (event) { console.log('OpenOnInAppBrowser -> iabLoadStart: ' + event.type + ' - ' + event.url); window.notifier.st...

This particular blog is devoted to the Android Log Viewer . It is a very useful tool when you are working with Cordova/Phonegap via command-line interface (CLI).  When a developers like you are working on CLI which is recommended by even Cordova team then the most important thing that you are going to face is that how to debug an application. Now you have an option to use eclipse, but then question arise that why the hell you are using CLI.  So the easiest choice would be to use a separate log viewer like this. Of course, the CLI would be very light weight and could work on less powerful machine as well. If you have bought a machine few years back then it might not handle currently available processing intensive applications very well. Thus the only choice left was to use CLI. But you will feel the power and beauty of this once you'll get used to it.  

Every time a file gets added to the project, it adds-up an extra latency in the file loading. So minimizing the number of files in the release-build would definitely enhance the performance of the app. Considering this fact, we should have only one stylesheet containing all the styles related to the app. Though putting everything (style class) in single file would definitely have the following effects Pros: It would make it  compact,  easy to load,  one-time loading  Cons: It would make it  lengthy for manual readability; Thus we need to make it modular, that means, a separate stylesheet need to be made for each module; which is easy to modify & debug for developers. Each stylesheet should follow the standard guidelines like adding a module-name prior to the style class name,  avoiding id based style class, etc. To enforce the developers to follow the standard guidelines, we can also use a css generator system. Where developers...
