In spite of its low performance over native development approach, cross-platform applications developed using PhoneGap framework are getting popular. On the other hand, company A is looking for a solution on informing their customers about current electricity interruption through a mobile application that can support multiple platforms. One way to solve the problem was focusing on the real world by building and evaluating an artifact using hybrid approach in cross-platform development. Results show that PhoneGap framework is a viable solution that saves considerable resources such as time, budget, and developer’s effort yet can support multiple mobile platforms without or with little modification to the original code-base. Also, if the applications are crafted well it can be a strong alternative (to native applications) both in performance and usability for light business type applications.
