bada SDK 2.0.5

bada SDK - Samsung’s new open mobile platform

Samsung’s new open mobile platform

With bada SDK, you can create your own applications. These applications can be deployed and tested on the Wave phone, which is Samsung’s first bada-powered device.

The SDK includes several components: an integrated development environment (IDE), Simulator, UI builder, sample applications, documentation and tutorials. Samsung bada’s IDE is based on the Eclipse CDT (C/C++ Development Tools), which is a popular development environment used by many mobile developers. The Simulator includes a local test environment that will no longer require you to have a real handset.

The bada platform allows developers to create feature-rich applications that elevate the user experience in mobile spaces. A new UI framework is provided, which supports the next generation Samsung TouchWiz UI.

Samsung bada also supports a control for Adobe Flash, a web browser control, motion sensing, fine-tuned vibration control, and face detection, which open up new possibilities for greater creativity and user interactivity. Samsung bada introduces several new service-centric capabilities that differentiate it from conventional mobile operating systems.

The various service-centric features such as social networking, content management, location-based services, and commerce services –are all supported by back-end bada servers.

NOTE:
- Language packs: The language packs can be installed separately after installing bada SDK.
- Users will need to create an account in order to be able to use bada SDK.
