#110Current prototype use Objective-c and Parse.
Since programmation is no magic, I always wondered if I could create an engine that generate native application on the fly. I built a quick prototype containing a tableview filled from an API with a detail page.
It worked so well that I am now working night and weekends to build a complete engine and a builder.
