Sencha Touch Intro • High performance HTML5 mobile application framework with world-class user experiences. • Build fast and impressive apps that work on iOS, Android, BlackBerry and more. • Over 50 built-in components • Very easy to learn • License Options • free commercial & open source licenses for application development. • paid commercial license for OEM uses. • Current Version 2.0.1

Components Most of the visual classes you interact with in Sencha Touch are Components. Every Component in Sencha Touch is a subclass of Component. Components are grouped into four categories
Components • Navigation components • Toolbar • Button • TitleBar • SegmentedButton • Title • Spacer • Form components • Panel • FieldSet • Checkbox • Hidden • Slider • Text • Picker • Date
Components • Store-bound components • DataView • Carousel • List • NestedList • General components • Panel • TabPanel • Viewport • Img • Map • Audio • Video • Sheet • ActionSheet • MessageBox
Containers • A Container has all of the abilities of Component, but lets you nest other Components inside it. • Most apps have a single top-level Container called a Viewport. • Containers give the following extra functionality • Adding child Components at instantiation and run time • Removing child Components • Specifying a layout
Layouts • Layouts describes how components are placed (arrangement/positioning) inside containers. • HBox • VBox • Card • Fit
