Hello. I'm wondering about the best way for android (on a mobile device) to handle the equivalent of a web-app. Let's say a client wants a version of their website (which contains server side capability - database, a framework like struts/spring, ajax calls etc) on a mobile device. How would you go about putting something similar onto an android mobile? What are the options, and the technologies you could use?
Would you a) simply make a new front end sitting on the existing web servers, written using a simplified XML which android can display appropriately? So all you had to do was call the appropriate web address to view the android version of the website. Or b) would you write a new app entirely for the device, which had a version of the database loaded into it? Or c) would you write a new app for the device, which made calls across the web to the existing server side functionality. If you did this, what technologies would you use for the communication? I hope this isn't to vague. I would appreciated any pointers to the technologies I need to be looking at to achieve this.
