Yahoo! Blueprint

February 4, 2008

Yahoo! has recently released their mobile development platform called Blueprint. It is an XML based Mobile Widget development platform based on XForms.

The widgets are powered by Yahoo's mobile engine called Yahoo! Go. "Go" is currently in version 3 and looks very promising. Yahoo claims that it is "The best Internet experience on your phone. Period".

Blueprint currently doesn't support scripting or procedural code but runs off of your own web server allowing for server side scripting such as PHP, ASP, and JSP.

Development into blueprint has just begun at troygullage.com. Stay tuned as examples will be posted soon.
