I found that most sample codes are read-only in the app, without post creation and response functionality.
I would like to create a mobile app (with titanium or phonegap) with post creation and response functionalities.
Any idea on how to implement it? Or any sample code that shows this functionality?
If you are enough skilled you can use Apppresser ( http://apppresser.com - https://wordpress.org/plugins/apppresser/).
It is a framework that allows you to build your app in wordpress and publish it through PhoneGap. It allows also to integrate and use many PhoneGap libraries.
I used it on couple of project and it is great, but again, you have to be quite skilled because it is a framework and not a visual builder.
They also have lots of video tutorial in documentation section that can make your life easier.
The framework is free but there are some useful paid add ons. For a blog app free framework has all you need.
Hope this helps!

I has created eshop in shopify and I want to add a functionality ( with the framework .net ) in shopify but I don't know how....
I searched on the internet but I didn't find anything just I found this link from the ShopifySharp github but I didn't understand how to use it.
Who can help me?

There are several possible ways to add functionalities to a Shopify shop depending on what you want to do.
They range from editing your shop's theme (mostly for simple needs) using html and/or js and/or and/or css and/or the liquid templating language (be careful though that any theme update may override your edits), to developing and hosting a custom app that would interact with your shop via a set of APIs (for more complex needs). Both techniques require a certain level of expertise (especially the later). See this very complete blog article for more info about how to build a Shopify app.
Basically you can build an app using any language and framework. The repo you found on Github looks like a C# SDK implementation of Shopify API. You are free to structure your app as you want provided you authenticate and communicate with Shopify using the possibilities offered by the API.
I'm looking to start a new WordPress API based project. I want to make sure I'm starting with the best tools at hand so that I'm not changing my mind half way through. What I want to know is; What is the best supported API framework for WordPress? What is the default API that comes as part of WordPress core and how does it compare to other WP API plugins.
I'm leaning towards the WP REST API however I would like to know if the XML-RPC interface 'WordPress API' would alternatively be the right way to go.
Any feedback would be great.
The official wordpress API is still under ongoing development. You can find the old legacy REST api here, which will work, but might be broken in the future: http://wp-api.org/index-deprecated.html
As for the new and improved version 2 found here http://v2.wp-api.org/ this is the version that will be supported and used in the future. I would recommend using this API, as there will most likely not be any huge breaking changes in the future, and this is being actively maintained and developed by a considerable amount of contributors.
There's still a lot missing from the official API, but they're working away on these issues as we speak. In it's current state, it's still quite powerful.
By default WordPress come with REST-API. If you don't want to use WordPress REST-API then You can use API-Framework and access the wordpress functions.
There are small api framework like slim api framework, fat-free api framework you can use for API's.
I have a few Wordpress sites and I would like to create apps (IOS and Android) for all of them. I did some research and found that PhoneGap (or similar products) appears to be the solution.
The App will simply get information from existing Wordpress site. I do not plan to add login/edit/post features to the app at this time. My sites have both Pages and Posts. Does that matter?
Is there any better solution than PhoneGap?
Thanks.
The two current big multi-platform solutions for apps are PhoneGap and Titanium. PhoneGap is less work, but Titanium has better performance and uses the platform default UI. Since you aren't building an advanced app, just reading JSON feeds, PhoneGap should work great for you.
It does not matter that you have both pages and posts. You will need to use a JSON API in order to get the data from WordPress. There are a couple plugins that do this and they are working on adding a JSON api to core right now. Until the core API is done, I would recommend using the WordPress.com JSON API that's included with the JetPack plugin since its made by Automattic and it has great documentation. If you go this route, you can also fairly easily add login/editing/posting later on with OAUTH2.
You should also check out Steroids.js, which builds on top of PhoneGap and adds features like real-time updates to devices without compiling, native UI elements etc.
I am currently planning to create a mood tracking application that will be able to run in different kinds of mobile platforms and I think Phonegap will be the best choice for that. But having no background in PHP coding and anything else with regards to database handling, I wanted to integrate Wordpress with my "native app". (So I could use various kinds of plugins to make my coding more easier) Is this possible? I've already read different kinds of articles and blogs but I want it to be straight forward as possible.
Thanks!
Use Wordpress as administration system on a Phonegap app is an easy way to have a great post system and widget options. But, if you have no background in PHP it's a little bit more complex...
To access to your WP datas, you'll need to write some PHP scripts that retrieve these datas to your application.
Take a look to this tutorial, I should help http://alexbachuk.com/wordpress-and-phonegap-part-1/
Good luck !
I need to add a gallery to my website, to show screen shots of websites and applications.
I run IIS.
I'm looking for something that is fairly self-contained and ready to integrate without a lot of work. I'd like to through a bunch of images in a directory and let it go.
I would love some nice effects for browsing the gallery.
What would you suggest?
You might want to look at nGallery for ASP.NET 2.0. I've support an application that uses an older version of this. No experience with this particular version, though.
Consider Gallery Server Pro (www.galleryserverpro.com). It is a free open source web gallery based on ASP.NET and has been around for several years. It is easy to integrate into an existing site by using the self-contained ascx user control.
