Resources and Community

Palm plans full lifecycle support for the developer: from the moment you first consider the platform, through the development and distribution of your first application, then to the maturation of your application and its evolution to the next big thing. This can only work through an open partnership with the entire community. Palm provides an initial offering of resources, and you use, comment on, and add to that offering, making it a living, breathing entity that’s cared for and fed by the entire ecosystem.

Initially, Palm makes the following technical resources available through the webOSdev developer website:

  • Palm webOS Mojo Software Development Kit

  • Additional Palm development tools

  • Palm webOS developer guide

  • Palm webOS API documentation

  • Human interface guide

  • Code samples

  • Access to support engineers

To facilitate a dialogue with the community, Palm also supports:

  • Community support forums monitored by internal Palm experts

  • Palm developer blog with news, perspective, and commentary for developers

To help you distribute and sell your applications and build your business, Palm is investing in the infrastructure to deliver:

  • An application submission and signing process to certify your application

  • The Palm App Catalog, with administrative features to help you manage the business of selling your application
