Very - VERY noob question

Hi All

I'm brand new here, so heres a total noob question... ( be gentle )

I've just found RunRev and I have to say, I''m really excited about the potential of this beast - the last time I was this hyped up was when I first ran into Director (about 15 years ago ) and more recently RapidWeaver by RealMacSoftware.

I currently have 25 Apps on the Apple App store and am about to release a similar number for Android - but these were all done the hard way in XCode and Eclipse

So.. here goes

Are we seriously saying that I can take 1 set of scripts / graphics / media and with the appropriate platform tweaks - deploy across OSX / Windows / iOS ?

I appreciate that I need to do some serious reading - get completely radical and do some tutorials etc - but thats a small price to pay

Thanks

Mark

Welcome aboard, Mark. Yes, in general terms you'll be able to share code and objects between platforms. But given the differences between the platforms, it can be useful to factor the business logic of an app from its UI, using different UI stacks for mobile and desktop.

even better - Thanks

I have to admit the whole metaphor is a bit weird right now - I'm more used to webpages

I think what I would like to do - as a first step - is a simple graphics slideshow - with iPad swipes to navigate and swap images depending on orientation

I'll do my best to track down sample file to pull apart
