Mobile

There are two primary ways in which you can build for mobile devices:

  • You can build natively on iOS, Android and other devices, utilizing the Force.com REST Web Services API, OAuth, optionally using wrappers for the native REST APIs. These can take the form of pure native apps, HTML5 apps, or hybrid container apps. The Mobile SDK supports the development of these applications.
  • You can use the native Salesforce Mobile client, and mobile-ready Visualforce pages.

This page provides resources for building mobile clients using these approaches.
