Sirv and Appery.io have joined forces to show you how easy it is to use advanced image processing when building your app in Appery.io. Read the rest of this entry »

As you probably know, a new attack called POODLE security vulnerability breaks SSLv3 secure browsing. To protect your information from being intercepted, spied upon or modified by attackers in between you and the service provider, we have stopped using the unsecured SSLv3 protocol and now only use the more secured TLS protocol.

This video shows:

• Understanding the new Model and Storage feature
• We create a model for Wine object
• We define storage (local storage) to store the wine list
• Build a mobile app that shows a list of wines loaded from a database. Clicking on a wine takes you to that wine details
• We also show a finished Todo-like app that runs entirely on the client
