Developing For Mesquito

Developing for Mesquito is extremely simple, in fact, almost any webapp can be easily converted into a Mesquito-compatible one, all it needs is an icon and a manifest file

Limitations

As it is overriding the store WAF, Mesquito can only access the com.lab126.pillow, com.lab126.chromebar and com.lab126.readnow LIPC services via the messaging object. Additionally, as it is running on a Kindle, it has the same featureset as Safari 5, you can use the caniuse.com site to determine if you can use certain web features on the Kindle.

Mesquito also includes its own pollyfill, and whilst the polyfill works extremely well, there are some things that can’t be replaced by a polyfill, for this reason the following features do not work:

A fix for the LIPC limitation is being worked on.
