I’m still new to the mobile app development world. I am starting to experiment with Ruby programming language which is a growing trend on the web. I came across a blog that directs you to some basic tutorials on Ruby Rails. While working them I learned about how this programming along with a few other micro-framework technologies can be used for android app development. I will not steel the thunder of Mike Leone’s blog that describes how to build a spycam app on your android using JRuby and SL4A (Scripting Layer for Android).
Here is a screenshot from my android spycam snapshot. I’m sure I could take this a step further and implement an autorefresh after some specified interval. This is nothing special but just demonstrates how simple it is to deploy a simple web app on your android that uses the functionality of the smartphone (camera in this case).
