Re: Mobile Ready and Touchable

[DesHartman]

Any word on this?

Would love to see a more mobile centric AngularJS

Thanks

specifically https://github.com/tigbro/jquery-mobile-angular-adapter#event-directives seems to cover this :)

I am trying to stay away from JQuery mobile. It is so slow on iPhone. I specifically moved to Angular to get away from JQuery. I'm looking for something that does not have all the baggage of JQuery. I know Angular uses JQueryLite, but I believe it is minimal.

@zoomclub mentioned a touch library?

Thanks

So zepto contains some very useful mobile-focused events for a very lightweight approach.  Zepto is what trigger.io folks suggest using, along with angular.

http://goodfil.ms/blog/posts/2012/08/13/angularjs-and-the-goodfilms-mobile-site-part-1/ has some examples of using zepto & flickable.js with angular.

Hello,

Most of the time JQuery Mobile is slow because bad designed.

But it is true that with old version of Jquery Mobile, you can experiment such slow behaviors.

Just get rid of default header/footer provided by jquery and create a ones in the container section.

Everything should run faster now: content + transitions + no flickering anymore. (As fast up to 99% as native apps >> when good designed)

Touch should probably belong in an external 3rd party file - eg a module called 'touch' and a file you include call angular-touch.js, then when you declare your app you would just put 'angular.module('myApp', ['touch'])'. angular.js is already quite a few kb to load :-).

Anyway, I've developed a few apps using AngularJS and jquery mobile, with the angular jQuery Mobile Adapter: https://github.com/tigbro/jquery-mobile-angular-adapter

But I warn you, if it's speed you want, stay away from jQuery Mobile (and sencha and dojo)! I have to turn off all transitions and do lots of optimizations and it's still kind of slow on any page change.

I would love to see a lightweight touch library hooked up to angular, with easy directives (on-swipeleft, on-drag, etc) for everything.  And I'd love to see a minimal ui library (maybe iUi) hooked up to angular, too.
