First, read this document to wet your whistle:
How to Turn Your Website into a Mobile App with 7 Lines of JSON https://medium.freecodecamp.org/how-to-turn-your-website-into-a-mobile-app-with-7-lines-of-json-631c9c9895f5

Here’s the steps I used to make one of my more mobile based “apps” in Domino work on the Jasonette framework:

  1. Sign up for “MacInTheCloud” if you don’t already have a macbook with the XCode editor.
  2. Open the XCode editor, select a “clone an existing project” and point to this github:
    GitHub - Jasonette/JASONETTE-iOS: 📡 Native App over HTTP, on iOS https://github.com/Jasonette/JASONETTE-iOS.git
  3. Open the "document…\Jasonette-iOS\app\Jasonette.xcworkspace
  4. Download the json file: https://www.pnp360.net/hybrid.json https://www.pnp360.net/hybrid.json YOu can replace the “https://www.pnp360.net/smdb.nsf https://www.pnp360.net/smdb.nsf” location to replace with your own db, or you can leave it as it is for now to see how it works in the simulator.
  5. You’ll end up putting the modified “hybrid.json” file into your own Domino server’s “data\domino\html” directory.
  6. Back in XCode, under the Jasonette…\Config…\settings.plist, change the url to “https://www.pnp360.net/hybrid.json https://www.pnp360.net/hybrid.json” or to your own .json file.
  7. Run the simulator after selecting the iphone version you want to test on and click the play button.

That’s about it. That’ll let you see how it works. My smdb is just a standard web based .nsf. Pretty cool stuff. I’m excited.
