External Dependencies

Mobile SDK uses the following external dependencies for various features of hybrid apps.

External JavaScript File	Description
jquery.js	Popular HTML utility library
underscore.js	Mobile Sync support
backbone.js	Mobile Sync support

Which JavaScript Files Do I Include?

Beginning with Mobile SDK 2.3, the Cordova utility copies the Cordova plug-in files your application needs to your project’s platform directories. You don’t need to add those files to your www/ folder.

Files that you include in your HTML code (with a <script> tag> depend on the type of hybrid project. For each type described here, include all files in the list.

For basic hybrid apps:

cordova.js

To make REST API calls from a basic hybrid app:

cordova.js
force.js

To use Mobile Sync in a hybrid app:

jquery.js
underscore.js
backbone.js
cordova.js
force.js
mobilesync.js
