Exploiting Tizen Features

Tizen tutorials teach you how to incorporate Tizen features into your application. The tutorials cover detailed code snippets to help you see how to write the required code in practice.

Select the feature you are interested in and see how you can implement its various functionalities into your application.

The following tutorials demonstrate features provided by the Tizen Web Device API:

• Tizen: Managing the Basic Tizen Features

  Demonstrates how you can filter data and use generic event handlers.

• Application: Controlling Your Applications

  Demonstrates how you can configure application properties, and manage application data, packages, and alarms.

• Communication: Connecting to the Network and Communicating with Messages

  Demonstrates how you can send data to networks and other applications, and receive data back from them.

• Content: Getting and Handling Content

  Demonstrates how you can manage files, playlists, and downloads, and view file details.

• Input/Output: Processing Input and Output

  Demonstrates how you can manage input and output data in your applications.

• Multimedia: Controlling and Playing Multimedia

  Demonstrates how you can manage the device sound levels and media keys.

• System: Getting System Information and Managing Devices

  Demonstrates how you can manage and retrieve information from the device and its sensors.

• User Interface: Notifying Users of New Application Information

  Demonstrates how you can manage badges and notifications on the screen.

• Social: Managing Personal Data in mobile applications only

  Demonstrates how you can manage the user's personal data, such as contacts, calendars, location data, and call and browsing history, on the device.

Note

In Tizen Web Device APIs, there are 2 types of APIs: mandatory and optional. The mandatory APIs are always available on all Tizen devices. The optional APIs provide functionality that depends on the available device hardware or software capabilities, and they may not be available in all Tizen devices. For example, the Bluetooth and NFC API hardware features are optional, and not supported on all devices. To determine the availability of optional APIs, use the tizen.systeminfo.getCapability() method of the System Information API (in mobile and wearable applications). Note that all mandatory APIs are supported on the Tizen Emulators, while the optional APIs may or may not be supported. For the details of each API, see Tizen Web Device API Reference.

In addition to the Tizen Web Device API tutorials above, you can implement the following features:

• Web UI Framework (UIFW): Creating UI Components

  Demonstrates how you can create and manage various kinds of UI components.

• Service Application: Creating a Service Application in wearable applications only

  Demonstrates how you can create a wearable Web service application.
