If you're a web developer looking to move into the mobile space, or a mobile developer seeking ways to build apps that work on several mobile platforms, this book shows you how HTML5 can provide the solution you need.

With Mobile HTML5, you'll quickly become familiar with HTML5's many new APIs, and understand how they work in the mobile environment. Though it seems counterintuitive, HTML5 is easier to use in mobile development than it is for desktop browsers. Learn how to use audio, video, and graphics within the bandwidth and screen constraints of mobile devices, and discover how HTML5 interacts with JavaScript and CSS3.

Whether you're building mobile apps or developing sites that target mobile browsers, HTML5 helps you take full advantage of this rapidly expanding environment. This book shows you how.
