Steve Jobs: hoe dan ook géén app store
Dated zondag 23 oktober 2011
The appstore op de iPhone, en later de iPad, was niet de visie die Steve Jobs had voor het platform. Sterker nog, uit de biografie van Steve Jobs van Walter Isaacson komt duidelijk naar voor dat Steve eigenlijk enkel webapps op Safari toe wou staan:
The full Safari engine is inside of iPhone. And so, you can write amazing Web 2.0 and Ajax apps that look exactly and behave exactly like apps on the iPhone. And these apps can integrate perfectly with iPhone services. They can make a call, they can send an email, they can look up a location on Google Maps.
And guess what? There’s no SDK that you need! You’ve got everything you need if you know how to write apps using the most modern web standards to write amazing apps for the iPhone today. So developers, we think we’ve got a very sweet story for you. You can begin building your iPhone apps today.
Ook na de lancering van de iPhone heeft Jobs zich nog lange tijd verzet tegen apps van derde partijen. Jobs was voornamelijk bezorgd dat het bedrijf niet in staat zou zijn de apps van derden te regulieren en faciliteren. Onder druk van de board of directors is Jobs uiteindelijk gezwicht. Jobs heeft daarna, met zijn gebruikelijke enthousiasme dit geweldige idee aan de wereld gepresenteerd. Dank zij zijn enthousiasme in de campagne "There is an app for that", is later de appstore het centrum van het succes van de iPhone geworden.
