Using Oracle JET (JavaScript Extension Toolkit) in Smartface

JavaScript is becoming a de facto standard in enterprise settings, especially in front-end applications.

For this reason, Smartface allows development of native iOS and Android applications just with JavaScript so that both web and mobile frontend development operations can be handled with a single resource, increasing productivity.

Similarly, Oracle offers Oracle JavaScript Extension Toolkit (Oracle JET) as a complete, modular and open-source JavaScript development toolkit designed to help developers build engaging user interfaces that interact with enterprise systems.

Smartface brings the power of the Oracle JET framework to native apps with the Smartface Oracle JET extension.

This unique offering combines the high quality and the performance of native apps with the flexibility and the modularity of Oracle JET.
