I'll have to try this out. When I was using cross-platform frameworks over a year and half ago (which is a long long time ago), they weren't very good. It seems like lots of cross-platform frameworks have made headway since then.<p>From a cursory glance, it seems like it should be easy enough to use. Though I have a question. What happens on errors? One of my big frustrations from before was that underlying iOS errors would bubble up and I'd spend hours digging around in iOS, trying to figure out what the error really was talking about. It required an understanding of how iOS/Android apps were put together.

I'm always going to favour PhoneGap over Trigger.io because of PhoneGap's plugin community. It's also relatively easy to make plugins yourself- I've been hacking around at adding the Spotify API recently. Being a paid product, it's unlikely that Trigger.io are going to get the same level of support from hackers that PhoneGap has.

Could you see what is going on with the first weather demo tutorial. I want to try your service out, however I can't download the resources.zip from the tutorial, I am returned a 404. Very excited to develop an app using your service!
