Building iPhone apps with revMobile

[admin]

Hi. Please pardon the intrusion but I hope this post will be interesting/relevant to this forum. I'm from RunRev, and we make an application called Rev for creating cross-platform software.

We have just released the iPhone pre-alpha of our new mobile app development tool, revMobile. Using this pre-alpha, one of our developers created a simple multi-touch game for the iPhone in 3 hours and 16 minutes. You can see this game right through from concept to finished article in our Youtube video.

A descendent of technologies such as Apple's HyperCard, one of Rev's main strengths is its natural, English-like syntax and the speed at which software can be developed, and then deployed to Windows, Mac OS X and Linux from a single application. We also have a browser plug-in for creating rich Internet applications that run in the web browser, and we're now turning our attentions to the mobile platform.

You can read more about revMobile at our site, and you can follow some of the basic tutorials to get started using Revolution to develop for the iPhone from Our Lessons portal.

We hope you don't mind us letting you know about our product on this forum: we believe it will provide an interesting new iPhone development option and make the platform even more accessible, particularly to those who don't already know Objective-C.
