hich uses the language like HTML, CSS, JavaScript. Layout of the game is “responsive” so you could play it on PC as well as on Phone.
Fruit salad is build on the model Bejeweled because it gameplay is very suitable for touch devices-  you swipe pieces around to align them and make them disappear.
  • HTML code for the game is very simple it doesnt use canvas.
  • CSS transition are used for animation.
  • Best Score is saved with Local Storage.
 
The Game is simple enough for beginners but also offer a bit of challenge to hardcore gamers.
 
The current version of the game has two problem:-
  1. Players need to have continous Internet Connection to launch the game.
  2. Most people don’t know they can create a shortcut icon for a web app.

PhoneGap

The first PhoneGap code was authored at the San Francisco iPhoneDevCamp in August 2008.
A contributing driver for its creation was a simple fact that almost every single newbie iPhone
developer runs into: Objective-C can be a very unfamiliar environment for web developers, and
there are lots more web developers out there than there are Objective-C ones.
The question was, could someone develop a framework that allowed web developers to leverage all
their knowledge of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript that could also interact with the important native
parts of an iPhone, such as the camera and compass?
Within a year, PhoneGap was winning awards and was starting to support the Android platform,
making it even more useful to the growing family of mobile developers who need to support code on
more than one platform.
 
PhoneGap is a free and open Source Framework which allows you to build hybrid applications.Its been originally developed by the nitobi and later acquired by Adobe Systems.It enable the web developer to build the application for mobile devices using the current skills set like HTML, CSS and Javascript instead of learning and coding in any specific language to target any specific platform.
                 The resulting Application will be hybrid in nature meaning that they are not neither truly native nor purely web based. 
 
PhoneGap Solves Two Problem for developer:
  • Can the developer use more familiar web language like HTML and JavaScript to create a working Mobile Application?
  • Can that code then be ported to another platform quickly and easily, thereby reducing the complexity of supporting multiple platform?
