Learn how to use Appcelerator Titanium's Alloy framework to handle platform-specific UI differences without cluttering your JavaScript logic with conditional statements.
Explore how Appcelerator Titanium and the Alloy framework enable native UI compilation from JavaScript, balancing shared code with platform-specific optimizations.
Decide when to use Appcelerator Alloy vs classic Titanium. Compare constraints, trade‑offs, and see a concrete ListView example that auto‑updates from SQLite. This guide helps choose the right approach for mobile UI development.
Learn how to use the Alloy MVC framework in Appcelerator Titanium to decouple UI markup, styling, and business logic for more maintainable cross-platform apps.
Validating an Appcelerator mobile app backup before restoration involves confirming that the archive is intact, that its manifest accurately describes the contents, and that the packaged application can launch successfully in a test environment. The process must work for both iOS and Android targets without modifying the original backup file. What is the rec
Goal: ensure that after restoring a backup, any cached data does not cause stale application state. Constraint/uncertainty: The Ti.Filesystem backup/restore APIs do not specify whether the application cache should be cleared automatically; current behavior leaves cache intact, and the documentation does not define a hook or permission for automatic cache cle
A Titanium native module exposes methods through a JavaScript Proxy object that represents the underlying native instance. When JavaScript invokes a native method asynchronously and supplies a callback, the native side may retain that callback for later invocation. If the JavaScript garbage collector reclaims the Proxy object while the native operation is st
The goal is to configure Appcelerator Titanium applications to present alerts that are visible to the user but do not generate any audible sound, vibration, or badge notification on Android devices, while still allowing the alert to be dismissed or acted upon. This approach relies on Ti.Android.createNotificationChannel with importance set to MIN (or LOW) an
Goal: assess whether the Titanium SDK should automatically renew ACS sandbox tokens when a protected method call returns a 401 error during development testing. Constraints: the SDK presently does not differentiate between a missing sandbox token and an expired token; it surfaces a generic Ti.Network.HTTPClient 401 error, leaving developers to implement manu
