Blackberry Development Poised to Change with New WebKit Browser

Apr 8, 2010 Blackberry Development

As mentioned in World Mobile Congress, BlackBerry is likely to get its first Webkit based browser very soon. Now what does that mean to Blackberry developers and all the development work going on in this platform?

WebKit is the platform for all the major browsers today, including Chrome for Android and Safari for iPhone. It offers complete web access for the users, thereby enhancing their overall experience.

Once Blackberry adopts to this WebKit based browser it would mean all the great webapps which are built primarily for iPhone and Android would likely start to work on new BlackBerry browser too (upon some tweaks).

The new BlackBerry browser will also get the full support for HTML5, CSS 3, and DOM L3 allowing Blackberry developers to come up with more interesting and rich web apps for the platform.
