Hi all, I'm a newbie to RhoMobile. I do however have lots of experience of enterprise device development on WinCE, PocketPC, Mobile platforms but I don't really code too much anymore.
I am also part of a new bootstrapped startup here in Ireland with two students who have just finished college and are having a hard time finding jobs so we are hoping to grow our own little software house developing mobile enterprise standalone and web applications.
My background is using visual studio VB.Net for Windows Mobile 6 (Motorola/Symbol/Zebra devices i.e. MC55 etc..), compact frameworks and SQLite. The two students are keen to use Java for Android but willing to explore other languages and IDEs.
We have been offered an opportunity to migrate a app I wrote in VB.Net over 10 years ago if we can re-design and re-develop it for the latest platforms.
As we are at a very delicate stage I would really love to hear the user experience of others about the time required to become productive, difficulties encountered and tips and tricks about adopting RhoMobile as a chosen development platform?
Are there any free tutorials, videos and online training modules we could access?
If I need paid support what is the entry level pricing today?
Anyone interested in collaborating on an open source learning-by-doing example project so we can co-create something of learning value for others and share the results here as OpenSource?
I also understand this is a very very small community currently, but we are a boot strapped startup working on a shoestring who believes in the OpenSource model and if we can produce enterprise commercial grade deliverables we like to give RhoMobile our best shot.
