This Git repository includes all of the source code used in creating a tutorial about tabs and toolbars in Sencha Touch.

The tutorial includes several checkpoints:

• Blank slate
• Create user interface using bottom-docked tab bar
• Break each card out into it's own file
• Specialize the behavior for individual cards
• Add a toolbar with title to each card
• Add 'ping' and 'clear' buttons, which update badge text on home tab button
• Demonstrate different styles of text buttons
• Demonstrate how to use an icon in a button

Using this repository to follow the screencast

First, you'll have to clone this repository:

git clone git://github.com/nelstrom/Sencha-Touch-tabs-and-toolbars-demo.git

Change into the directory:

cd Sencha-Touch-tabs-and-toolbars-demo

By default, the git clone command will only create the master branch locally. If you want to study the code at each checkpoint, you will have to fetch each of the other branches. You can do so by running the following:

git co -b 00_blank_slate origin/00_blank_slate
git co -b 01_create_bottom_tabs origin/01_create_bottom_tabs

Deployment

This code is deployed to Heroku as a static site, served by Rack. All files under the 'public' directory are served as static files (using Rack::Static middleware). The Rack::Rewrite middleware ensures that the index.html file is served for the root path: '/'. This is configured in the config.ru file.
