How does this basically work?

At the moment, the Android App is nothing more then a WebView which renders the normal web page. The IITC script is injected on page load and after this, it works the same way as on desktop browser. More functionality will be added soon...

Debugging

If you want to debug the APK, I suggest reading up on Google’s documentation.

Debugging IITC(M) after it has booted is relatively easy: you can switch to the “debug” tab, which is a low end developer console. It renders all calls to console.*, so you can use it just like you expect. It may be easier to develop in a desktop browser. Set it up like explained in the normal hacking guide, but fake your user agent or modify the detection in code/smartphone.js and main.js. The device ID is printed to the debug console on IITC boot.

Debugging IITC(M) before it has booted requires the Android Developer Tools. Connecting your device and running adb logcat should print the debug log to your computer until the low-end dev console mentioned above is available.

Building the APK

• Eclipse: Just import this project and klick the build button.
• ant: Set the ANDROID_HOME environment variable: export ANDROID_HOME=/path/to/android_sdk and build the project with ant: ant debug
• You can use build_mobile.js, too, which builds IITC, compresses it and uses ant to build a release APK of IITCM. It requires that you have Python and uglifyjs installed. You need to set the ANDROID_HOME, like explained above.
