Developing Mobile Applications Using the Microsoft Mobile Internet Toolkit

ne of the ever-present challenges facing mobile application developers is maintaining the look and feel of applications across different devices. There is an untold number of mobile devices such as PDAs and cell phones on the market today and each device has different behaviors and a different graphical user interface. Historically, developers have had to maintain multiple versions of an application—one for each device it is intended to run on. But due to the large number of devices that is no longer a viable option for developers today.

The Mobile Internet Toolkit (MMIT) from Microsoft is an extension to the .NET Framework and ASP.NET that allows developers to write mobile Web applications that target multiple devices such as cell phones and PDAs. The MMIT frees the developer to concentrate on the application logic and leave the UI rendering to the runtime.
