title: jquery mobile for apps for IOS and Android?
body: <p>I am quite confused with the info I read online. </p>
  
  <p>Some say for IOS apps,</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Apple restricts developers to writing iPhone applications in
    Objective-C, C, C++ or JavaScript as executed by the iPhone OS WebKit
    engine.</p>
    
    <p>Apps must be originally written in one of these languages and may only
    use Documented APIs in a manner prescribed by Apple. Only code written
    in Objective C, C, or C++ may compile and directly link against the
    Documented APIs.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>while Android apps use Java.</p>
  
  <p>Then I also came across jquery mobile for cross platforms. So I am not sure which route I should take for developing an app. I prefer jquery mobile of course as I think it is not ideal to use two different languages to develop an app. And it takes time to learn Java and Objective-C.</p>
  
  <p>So I want to know - can I just use jquery mobile to develop an app for IOS or Android?</p>
  
  <p>Below is tutorial on developing an app by using jquery mobile,
