The course is also for those web designers and developers who would like to make the leap into mobile web development and develop websites and web applications for handheld devices such as amart phones and tablets. In addition, the course is a great jump-start for web designers who would like to focus more on web development, in other words designers who have built static non-interactive websites and who now wish to create Rich Internet Applications (RIAs). The course is also advisable for developers of web applications who currently use other technologies such as Adobe Flash and Flex or Microsoft Silverlight and would like to understand what HTML5 and its related API?s bring to the RIA table.
