Appcelerator – A Friend Indeed (And in need)

Appcelerator – A Friend Indeed (And in need)

Generally we love Appcelerator (apart from a few annoying features!). Mainly because it means we, as a department, don’t have to spend six months with our heads stuck in Objective C books trying to work out the cryptic syntax (by all accounts you can get a cream for it).

    Its very early days, but we’ve started working with Honeywell. They’re based here in Basingstoke so our local-ness (pretty sure that’s not even a word!) is helpful when there’s a tight deadline to hit.
