Mobile First supports any javascript Framework like DOJO/Sencha/jQuery/AngularJS. So is it possible to build new maximo anywhere app also through any above mentioned JS Framework?
The answer is Yes. The mentioned frameworks are frontend/client-side frameworks and as such have no relation to the functionality that MobileFirst and/or Maximo provide you with. They relate to how the app looks, not what the app does.
Yes but, please understand you could have to rewrite some of the ANT scripts used to build the apps. I haven't attempted this yet, and would love to hear your feedback as to what you find. I'm not a fan of dojo and would like an alternative like ionic too!

I'm working on a project with ArcGIS/ESRI in WebStorm. According to the documentation, "Dojo is included with the ArcGIS JavaScript API so there is no need to host/reference/install it." This means WebStorm has no idea what require is:
How do I add support without installing Dojo/require?
Was just going to comment, but can't yet?! Anyway, I had to reengineer my web-site dev-ops to account for the ESRI javascript API. I am using 4.6 though...
The API, which includes dojo, may be installed, but it has to be configured into your site. Once you reference dojo/dojo.js, all will be good. But you need the config set-up first.

There is a link to the API javascript resources. This will really help understand the process!

I am just getting this stuff "almost" working. And actually had a build question to post and saw this. Hope it helps. I was using AMD and thought I had to go the requirejs route, but the dojo stuff worked out better for me. Check them both out and see what works for you! Good Luck!
I want to integrate the Foundation (5) front-end framework with the Yii (1.1) PHP framework for developing a web application.
Since i am new to both of them and learning to use it as i move along with the development, I am unaware as to how will i be able to use both of them for the same project.
Logically speaking i understand that the Foundation 5 directory has to put into the Yii project directory structure. But i am not sure as to which directory to use in Yii project for that.
I tried researching on the web, but since i am new i am not able to understand which is the right way to go about achieving what i intent to.
Step by step instructions to do it would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
First you have to realize that Foundation is just a collection of html, css and javascript. So you use it like every other html, css javascript in Yii.
Then if you are learning do not create something yourself for now. Use something that somebody else has done: http://bootstrap3.pascal-brewing.de/ Here are instructions for using twitter bootstrap (another kind of Foundation) in Yii. With examples and everything. Start using it, be happy that you manage to do stuff right away... study the code when you get stuck, understand what happens in there.

They have done a good work in packaging it as an extension for yii.
Does anybody have a recommendation for unit testing home grown rally apps?
I've started to look at Jasmine as recommended in the Sencha docs and it looks promising, but I'm a little unsure about how to tie in all the Rally infrastructure, and I'm not a Javascript expert.
If anybody has used Jasmine for this, do you have some examples of how to set up a basic configuration for using Jasmine to test a SDK2 Rally app?
One of the next things I wanted to create in my app building framework was a tie to some testing framework. I was leaning towards Zombie, you may want to check that one out.
Has anyone used QUnit to test Windows Store App? Any recommendations on how to run testing smoothly? I seem to be having issues stubbing methods that cite some of the internal Windows. references. Is there a way to run QUnit while the metro app is actually running, instead of writing tests in a standalone fashion?
Check out this project started recently that helps you use QUnit in Metro apps
QUnit-Metro
There are two QunitMetro libraries available
Codeplex http://qunitmetro.github.com/QUnitMetro/
MSDN Code Gallery http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/9a49206d-8b60-4324-a23f-eb01264ece3d
I recommend the CodePlex version as I have not tried the MSDN one.
I have recently been browsing frameworks such as JavaScriptMVC, qooxdoo, Sproutcore and others alike which are using javascript to create desktop-like apps in the browser with minimal, or none css/html (depending on the framework).
What I know of titanium is that it uses html/css for the views, and language of choice (javascript, ruby,python,php) for everything else. Then it gets compiled(?) into a native app.
What are the quirks? if any?
Is it necessary for the user to install some sort of a runtime to execute the compiled app?
I suppose javascript is the prefered language, but how are the other ones handled?
For example, which Ruby interpreter would be included, would I be albe to use the ruby stdlib or external libraries? Would it affect the speed of the app? I.e JS > Ruby in terms of speed.
Since the views are CSS/HTML, would it still be necessary to style the elements, add them effects via JS librarier to achieve a widget-like feeling? Or does it come with some pre-made settings/classes for that?
I am not sure if it applies to the desktop package, but is there some syncing with the appcelerator's server required? What would it be necessary for?
I am sorry if the questions sound stupid, but I didn't even realise there are than many tools until recent. I am ultimately looking for something which is easy to use, has an option to work with a back-end server for data exchange, looks preferably good 'out of the box' or doesnt require that much work to get it themed nicely and works on mobile as well as desktop devices.
With Titanium you build your app out using javascript. Titanium ultimately generates its own XCode project for you that is compiled and deployed to a device.
The user does not require any runtime be installed prior to installing your app.
Unless your building custom modules to hook up your own controls you stick with javascript.
Your javascript calls end up as native controls, early versions required css like styling due to reliance on webkit but this is no longer the case.
There is no IDE but it does come with an app to create Titanium projects, test in emulator, deploy etc. It also talks back to HQ for updates.
In answer to (2), Titanium Mobile is Javascript only, but Desktop also supports Python, Perl and PHP.
