iOS is a very popular mobile application platform and operating system from Apple. iOS applications are natively developed using either Objective-C or Swift, and are executed on Apple devices using the appropriate runtime environments. Various development tools, libraries and approaches have been made available by Apple and other vendors for iOS development.

The Jkop Framework

Jkop is an API framework that aims to provide consistent or identical APIs and development experiences across different programming languages and technology platforms. It is also intended to act as a common layer between them. The Jkop project is composed of several modules, each of which is targeted for a specific purpose or environment.

Jkop Widgets

The Jkop framework includes a number of widgets, which are reusable user interface components that can be used to construct good-looking, modern user interfaces for mobile devices as well as web and desktop applications. The Jkop Widget API offers a common development framework regardless of the underlying platform, but would use the underlying platform-specific mechanisms to provide the actual functionality.
