No one can deny the fact that smart technology is now a must have for everyone.

Traditional desktop has taken a back seat thanks to the rise in mobile technology. Now that everyone is browsing over smartphones, it is very important for your app to be available to your consumers. Since, there is a wide range of devices available, developers make sure that that app is accessible via all devices. Obviously, who would want to create an app for every mobile device? That is just impossible. Thanks to the progressive enhancements like HTML5, you no longer need to developer a separate app for every phone. HTML5 will remain in the trend because it allows developers to use the same code base for all devices. Below we have mentioned JO simple framework for html5 app.

Your HTML5 app lives in a single page and Jo helps you create a native-like app experience. Sure, there’s some DOM manipulation going on in there, but you don’t have to worry about it unless you want to. Build your app with JavaScript, tweak some CSS and call it a day.
