blackberry application develpment

Question

Is java the only language available to develop applications for blackberry. Though i have checked phonegap but its not properly documented.

Answer 1

As far as I know, yes. Alternatively, you can develop web applications what will work on BlackBerry.

See BlackBerry developers site for more information.

Answer 2

You could develop a BlackBerry Widget, which uses Javascript instead of Java. It's still deployed and installed in the same way as a native Java app.

Answer 3

Yes, you can use HTML5, CSS3 and JS to create apps for BlackBerry using tools such as PhoneGap Build or BlackBerry WebWorks.

Here is a new book in Amazon that provides a PhoneGap Build example that was targeted on BlackBerry OS 6.0 devices.
