TWILIO CLIENT - VOICE Web/Javascript iOS Android PhoneGap (https://github.com/ jefflinwood/ twilio_client_phonegap) 

TWILIO CLIENT Capability Token Don’t ship Twilio credentials on the client side Build apps that do voice chat, conference call, make phone calls Great for staying within the app Pass parameters when connecting 

CAPABILITY TOKENS Tokens configure your mobile app to be allowed to make or receive certain Twilio connections Outgoing Connections - TwiML Voice App - pass parameters Incoming Connections - identified by a String for the Client Name Create with Twilio Helper Library 

CAPABILITY TOKEN EXAMPLE 

SERVER FOR TWILIO CLIENT Need a server to provide capability tokens Twilio Mobile Quickstart - https:// github.com/twilio/mobile- quickstart Your own server will depend on what you're building - in app purchase, CRM, etc. 

BUILDING APPS WITH PHONEGAP 

GETTING STARTED WITH PHONEGAP/CORDOVA XCode (on Mac) Android Studio/Java Node.js/npm Cordova/PhoneGap npm install -g ios-sim 

PHONEGAP PLUGINS Plugins bridge the gap between a mobile web site and a mobile app Standard plugins for phone capabilities - Camera, Filesystem Third-party plugins to wrap native libraries - like Twilio Client SDK Usually cross-platform, if possible. 

PHONEGAP PLUGIN FOR TWILIO Created by Steve Graham for iOS Later additions to keep up with Cordova/PhoneGap development (fast moving changes) Android added with the same API Send and receive voice calls Similar API to Javascript SDK, but not exactly the same 

INSTALLING TWILIO PLUGIN Follow directions on GitHub README to install plugin on a per-platform basis, or across Android and iOS Also need to follow directions in command line after installing plugin to add Twilio Client SDK Plugin gets updated with Cordova/PhoneGap and Twilio Client changes
