How to build mobile widgets | Think Vitamin
A mobile widget is a simple web app that’s built with open web technology like HTML, CSS and JavaScript (we used jQuery). You don’t have to write a line of Java or any proprietary code and you don’t have to understand anything about ‘mobile development’. The files are packaged up into a zip file and downloaded to the phone. The device installs the widget locally, and then it can talk to the web. Widgets can currently run on Nokia S60 phones (currently 1M+ and growing).
