an interactive graphical display. You can even create action-filled
games with animations and sound.
We would
like to do that too, thats why we are working hard here at Mobile
Sorcery to bring additional language support in the future.
Not really. MoSync supports applications written in C/C++. However, due
to the limitations of mobile phones, many of the standard libraries are
unavailable. There are also new, MoSync-specific functions available
that you will have to learn, but our tutorials and examples are here to
help you with that.
To begin,
please take a look at our documentation.
You may also browse through some of the example
we have prepared for you as demonstration of some of the capabilities of our
MoSync engine.

may do it through the Feature Requests section in our
