Exciting news as Enyo, the framework that powers webOS, is now officially Open Source and also cross platform – it can run in any Desktop and mobile browser (and via Phonegap can be easily ported to native code for the different platforms too). I really look forward to this as I have had a taste of web app development with NSB/App Studio in creating apps in medwebapp.com and oncopda.com. With EnyoJS, I now have another web app development alternative. EnyoJS is modular with UI widgets and is highly scalable (being able to run your apps in devices different screen sizes) and when Enyo comes to Ares 2.0 (the browser based IDE I used in many of my medical webOS apps) sometime in April, I foresee it will get even easier to develop in Enyo.
If you are interested, you can head over to:
HP webOS Developer centre
and the new EnyoJS website which has some cool samples which you can run in your webkit browser (e.g. Chrome or Safari desktop, iOS or Android device):
Flicker search
