Build BlackBerry® 10 WebWorks™ directly from GitHub: Stakes and Opportunities for Developers

Following the several requests from developers to be able to build BlackBerry® 10 WebWorks™ directly from GitHub, henceforth since the October 23 , 2012, developers have got response from RIM Blackberry .

In fact the main issue before, was that the latest BlackBerry 10 WebWorks SDK features were dependent on features in the BlackBerry 10 OS. Therefore, if you built BlackBerry 10 WebWorks in open source, it potentially would not work with latest BlackBerry 10 OS beta.

You can now go to RIM GitHub repositories, look at pull requests, pull down the branch, and more or less a few minutes later you have a BlackBerry 10 WebWorks build with the new extension or feature.

The advantages to a BlackBerry 10 WebWorks app developer aim to be infinite via two repos. There are two main branches in each BlackBerry 10 WebWorks repo: master and next. The master branch will contain all the features that you can currently use with the current publicly-released OS. The next branch will contain the new features that have OS dependencies.
