Looking forward to developing apps

mor · 06-30-2011, 05:54 AM

Hello everyone,

I am a new user of ebook readers. Soon I will get Onyx M90 and I have already BeBook (old edition) and PocketBook 903.

I am really looking forward to learning how to develop apps for these devices. I think these devices have a lot of unexplored potential in such areas as stylus interaction, document editing, network apps, or p2p apps. I have some experience programming in C, C++, Objective-C, Java, Python, and have done some mobile apps in Java but it seems that for Onyx and for PocketBook one needs to develop strictly in C. Is that true? (Can we use C++ too?) My preferred OS for development is Linux, is that a problem? Any information and pointers to information will be appreciated!

best regards

mor

Hi mor, and welcome to Mobileread. You would probably be best to pose your question on the appropriate sub-forums, it's where people who know about that sort of stuff hang out.
