Hello World App

In this tutorial, I will quickly introduce you to the API which you will need to create Apps for the AdoMado Apps Platform.

A few quick points to remember, before planning your App

• We load jQuery in every page. It is available as $j in global scope (window.$j)
• Your App exposes a set of callbacks which are called as and when a user interacts with your App
• The App is run within the scope of a self executing function, hence you are free to define any variables in your namespace.
• Your scope contains an object - config - which you can use to access the API object instance
• Each App is accompanied by a manifest file which defines rules which tell the platform when to load the App

Instead of making you read the API documentation, lets start straight by creating a simple Hello World App.
