Hybrid Mobile Development

I have always been excited on mobile development although I had only few opportunities to get my hands dirty. I came across this series of blog posts by Rashmika Nawarathne which tell the story of hybrid mobile development from 'why' to 'how'.

I have been the following the blog posts and thought it is certainly worth sharing with others as well.

You can find the introductory blog post of the series  at,

You can follow the rest of the series from his blog.

We are currently on our way to release Identity Server 5.2.0 beta. During alpha testing, I learnt several basics that I thought worth making a note of. Hence, this post as both a note to myself and anyone starts off with WSO2 Identity Server. A user store is basically where WSO2 IS stores all information about users such as username, password, roles etc.WSO2 Identity Server comes with a built-in LDAP-based primary user store out of the box. This is true for other WSO2 products as well. However, you also have the option of configuring any JDBC database,external LDAP or an Active Directory as the secondary user store in WSO2 IS and other products. I will focus on setting up a MySQL database as the secondary user store in WSO2 IS in this post. I will divide the process into to thre...
