Titanium achieves all this flexibility through a design rather similar to Adobe's AIR product, but with a standards-based open source pedigree.
The key component is a platform-specific, WebKit derived runtime engine to render and execute the web pages and scripts as a native application.
WebKit technology is not only very popular – it's found in Adobe AIR's runtime and many browsers like Google's Chrome and Apple's Safari - but it allows developers to use the latest HTML5 and CSS3 standards, plus the powerful functionality offered by Javascript frameworks such as JQuery, Prototype, Dojo and MooTools.
Importantly, JavaScript behaviour and HTML/CSS rendering is consistent across all platforms, while still exhibiting an OS-specific look-and-feel. This is critical to achieving the best possible user experience on each platform - an important factor in gaining a high rating in the various mobile App stores and marketplaces.
