Introduction
A port of the popular Jetty open-source web container to run on the Android mobile device platform.
Having a "personal" webserver on your phone opens up a world of possibilities, letting you run your favourite existing webapps in your mobile environment.
It also means that you can bring the contents of your mobile phone to your normal desktop browser. You don't need any special software to synchronize the mobile data to your desktop computer - the i-jetty console makes your on-phone info like contacts lists, call logs and media instantly available and manageable via your browser.
The i-jetty project consists of the i-jetty application, and 3 example webapps that can be deployed onto the phone:
- console which allows you to access the on-phone data from anywhere
- hello an example webapp containing a HelloWorld servlet
- chat a chatroom using jetty's implementation of the cometd Bayeux protocol
i-jetty will automatically install the console webapp onto the phone. The others can be downloaded from the download site.
