About Mootor

The key features are:

• Easy to use

Examples

See inside the "examples" folder, you will need a web server (or UIWebView) if you want to load views.

If you want to run the examples in a desktop browser, you will need to emulate touch events, for example using the "Emulate touch events" in Chrome Developer Tools.

Useful info

Currently compatibility is WebKit or Gecko based browsers (iOS, Android, Mozilla)

Only for testing

We are in a development stage, THIS SOFTWARE IS ONLY FOR TESTING.
