As I am convinced that hybrid App development techniques like Apache Cordova / PhoneGap are here to stay and they really provide a lot of advantages over native implementations, I’m trying to regularly reserve parts of my time to get deeper into these  technologies.

One of the best tutorials as a starting point for getting in touch with Apache Cordova is the one of Christophe Coenraets which can be found here: http://ccoenraets.github.io/cordova-tutorial/ (last accessed November 2015).

Strongly recommend it to everyone interested!
