Will the Braintree JavaScript API work ok for Windows Phone? - windows-phone

I have been reviewing Braintree for an app I may be developing. I was wondering if I could use the JavaScript API to utilize Braintree on a Windows Phone 8.1 HTML / CSS / JS Runtime app(since there is no official Windows Phone API). Would I run into any issues?

I work at Braintree. We have had merchants report success with a Windows Phone 8.1 application based on our web libraries, however we don't have any specific guides to share with you. If you encounter issues we'd be glad to take a look (your best bet may be to contact our support team) and see if there is anything we can do to help.

How can I share things to other apps on a Windows 10 App by JS?

I am creating a Windows 10 hosted Web App following the guideline here. I have a button on my App, which for Android, would lauch the native sharing dialogue. I guess Windows 10 should have something similar, so that users can share the page URL to other apps like Facebook and Twitter whewn they find the page interesting. I am looking at here but the links are dead. Any examples or documentations about how I can achieve this? Thanks!
On the following location you can find example code (JS, C# and C++) how to share data/content with another app in Windows 10.

What can we do with UCWA API (Lync)? and What can we not do with UCWA API?

Please explain what are features available in UCWA API (Lync)? I'm interested in the following:
Screen Sharing?
Video Chatting?
Voice Chatting?
Send a file?
I want to access UCWA API in android code, is it possible?
As per the About link of UCWA, API helps you to do the following things,
-Anonymous Web Chat.
-Support audio conferencing
-Light up IM & Presence in your Line-Of-Business app, including Windows 8, iPad, and others
-Inline Instant Messaging into your application (Contextual Communications)
-Search for Skype and/or business contacts
-Better together with UCMA Customer Care family of apps
Also you can refer this site UCWA Capabilities
A good wealth of information surrounding UCWA is available at http://ucwa.lync.com paying specific attention to the Documentation menu. A good rundown of features can be found at Core-Features which do not currently (CU3+) include screen sharing, video, voice, data collaboration (sending a file).
It is possible to place a audio call using a feature named Call-Via-Work which requires the user provide a callback number that Lync will use to connect you with the remote party, but it is not exactly the same as an audio call between two parties.
I want to access UCWA API in android code, is it possible?
There are sample libraries available (UCWA Helper Libraries) in JavaScript, but it is quite possible to use the libraries to construct code to run on an Android platform (Java, etc).

Printing phone number of the user using senchaTouch

I need to know if there's anyway i could get the users mobile number using SenchaTouch. I am really new to this framework, and can someone help me solve my problem.
I certainly hope not! Sencha is a server side framework for building web applications.
What you ask for would be a huge privacy invasion. A web site could harvest phone numbers from all visiting mobile users...
That is certainly not possible....and sencha touch is just a mobile java script framework.
This library definitely has no such capability to do so. Definitely a crime hacking to hack phone number who will browse the website or app.

How to develop apps using PhoneGap or AdobeAir?

I'm trying to understand how programs like PhoneGap and Adobe Air work, that allow you to 'write once and run anywhere' on mobile platforms. The way I understand it now is that you build your application as a web app using either HTML5, or flash, or I don't know what, and it takes in those files and converts them to the proper types for each mobile OS. Assuming this is correct, what I would like to know is, what the options for developing web apps that are able to be converted into apps are; and what the most popular platforms to use/learn flash, or html5, or JavaScript, or I have no idea what are.
I want to build a web app to deploy across multiple phone platforms, but I don't know where to start. Thanks for the help!
You use tools like PhoneGap to access native device API's through JavaScript. If you don't need access to these API's you can write a HTML5 app and install it using "Add to home screen" etc.
As HTML5 matures, more and more of the device API's are actually directly available through HTML5 (for instance GPS), so depending on what you want to do access it might be in/scheduled to be part of the Device API.
Write once and run anywhere
There are different frameworks that lets you deploy to multiple platforms through the device specific install process. These tools usually work in 2 ways. Run in an embedded browser, or compile to native code.
PhoneGap runs the HTML5 part of your app in an embedded browser. Other tools like MonoTouch actually cross-compiles to native code, so they run on the bare metal.
Cross platform using HTML5
There are plenty of frameworks you can use to make mobile apps with HTML5. These usually help make the app "feel native", and includes abstractions over device specific idioms that differ between the different devices.
Popular frameworks includes Sencha Touch, JQuery Mobile and a bunch of others.
If you want the users to install the app through the AppStore/Market etc. then a solution like PhoneGap is a good option. If you don't care about that you can write your app and add a meta tag like
<meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes">
and when you add it to the home screen it'll look just like any other app and run in an embedded browser without the browser window etc. You can add offline capabilities using HTML5 and synch when users go on-line etc. all just using HTML5.
Have a look at the Sencha touch app gallery to see what is possible with this technology.
