Get a copy of a sample MobileFirst application to use as a starting point for developing your own custom application.
Procedure
- From the navigation sidebar of the IBM MobileFirst™ Platform Operations Console, select Download Center.
- On the Download Center page, select the Samples tab.
- In the Application Samples section
of the Samples tab are download options that
correspond to samples for the supported development platforms. Select
the appropriate download option, and follow the instructions in the
dialog window to save the archive file of the sample application to
your preferred location.
When used with the MobileFirst Development Server from the IBM MobileFirst Platform Foundation Developer Kit, the console displays both local (
) and remote (
) download options. When used with another MobileFirst Server,
the console displays only remote download options. The local-download
options do not require an internet connection. - Extract the sample files from the downloaded archive file.
Results
The sample applications contain useful code examples that demonstrate how to use the respective MobileFirst SDK and test the connection to the server. See the README.md file in the extracted sample directory for specific information and usage instructions.
You can add the sample to your IDE and use it as the starting point for your development, or use the sample as a general reference for a functioning application.
