Hamishwillee - Would be great to have a real example or testing
Hi Aady
It is sometimes useful to have signposts to tools. At the same time this feels a bit of a wasted opportunity - there isn't a lot of information or examples verifying how useful this framework is on WP8. What would be great would be a real example showing something new about Sencha, possibly comparing to native app, and showing how easy it is to run the same app on another platform.
Just a thought
As it is I've subedited to simplify this slightly - no point having a separate introduction heading for example.
