RIM acquired tinyHippos a short while ago, and leaving beta Webworks APIs now supports tinyHippos Ripple Emulator. With these new tools developers can compile codes within the simulator without having to edit your source code. This is a great way to develop and take advantage of HTML5 code as well as cross platfrom compatibility.
Here are a few things you can expect from the
Ripple Emulator as it evolves
- Downloadable light weight emulator running on your desktop like a standard browser with integration into any tool that can have a browser registered (i.e. Eclipse™ & Visual Studio™)/li>
- Fidelity rendering and JavaScript® compatibility with the actual BlackBerry WebKit browser/li>
- Embedded WebInspector support for debugging/li>
- Ability to build and sign your app
- Ability to load your built application on a device simulator or actual
device for final testing
