    Default Answered: Using native device features using ST2

    Answered: Using native device features using ST2


    Hi,
    I'm new user of Sencha Touch 2... I have a question about the accessing device features such as accessing a camera or contacts.


    Does Sencha Touch 2 totally depends on phonegap library to access such device features?


    Is Sencha Touch 2 includes it's own library to access device features? OR Is it possible to access the device features using Sencha Touch 2 and not using the phonegap?

    Yes, there are a few APIs available: http://docs.sencha.com/touch/2-0/#!/....device.Camera (check the others under Ext.device.) and there is more to come with version 2.1.

    Yes. It just depends on what you need. Sencha doesn't offer as much as PhoneGap (yet?).
