Mobile Skills Not Enough, Tech Exec Advises Developers | The Manila Bulletin Newspaper Online: "MANILA, Philippines - Despite the growing success of mobile device applications, programming skills in mobile device platforms are not enough to ensure a successful long-term career for software developers. These must be complemented by service-side programming skills, according to the head of Filipino software development firm Orange & Bronze Software Labs (O&B).
During the recent DevCon Mobile Code Camp, O&B co-founder and CEO Calen Legaspi said that software programmers must not jump into the mobile device bandwagon too fast without learning the necessary development capabilities on servers.
In fact, he recommends that developers strengthen their server or client-side programming skills first then develop their software programming skills later. In particular, the more stable platforms in terms of wide usage, such as the multi-paradigm language, JavaScript and the newer version hypertext markup language 5 (HTML5)—a language for structuring and presenting content for the World Wide Web—could be starting ground for development on mobile devices.
