jQTouch (jQT) is a jQuery/Zepto.js plugin for building mobile web apps with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, providing native-feeling animations, navigation, page history management, and themes for mobile WebKit browsers. It targets iOS, Android, BlackBerry, and WebOS devices with CSS3 transitions and Sass-based, image-less theming.

Use cases

  • build a mobile web app with html css and jquery
  • add native-like page transitions to a mobile website
  • create an iphone-style web app with themes
  • handle swipe and orientation events in a mobile web app
  • run a web app in fullscreen with custom icons on ios
  • build lightweight mobile pages using zepto instead of jquery

When to choose

  • maintaining a legacy mobile web app already built with jQTouch
  • targeting old WebKit-only mobile browsers with jQuery or Zepto
  • you want a tiny, themeable plugin rather than a full framework

When to avoid

  • starting a new mobile project - use a modern framework instead
  • you need support for modern browsers beyond WebKit
  • you need long-term maintenance or active community support
  • building native or hybrid apps with device API access
