The demand for mobile user interfaces for existing applications is growing at a rapid rate. During this webinar, attendees will learn how to develop these interfaces using two very common platforms – a PHP web application and an Android phone client. After introducing the basic concepts, Teti will explain how to REST-enable a server application to build a client application for an Android phone.

During this webinar, Teti will explain:
• How PHP supports REST and JSON
• The basics of Android client development
• How to create a REST web service with Embarcadero RadPHP
• How to connect from an Android application to the REST web service

Supplemental information on this topic, including a technical white paper, example source code and a video series on building applications with PHP and Android, is available through the RAD in Action – PHP and Android Resource Center: http://www.embarcadero.com/rad-in-action/php-android. A free trial of RadPHP can also be downloaded from the resource center.
