Available soon, Nokia Web Tools 2.0 delivers a suite of applications that assist in the development, testing, packaging, and
deployment of Series 40 web apps, including preparing them for distribution through Nokia Store. The key components of Nokia
Web Tools are Web Developer Environment and Web App Simulator.
Web Developer Environment
Built on the Eclipse platform, Web Developer Environment delivers the code creation tools needed to efficiently create and
package web apps.
Extensive templates for new projects
Use a wide variety of templates for common web apps styles to quick-start the development of your web apps. Import existing
projects to take advantage of enhanced editing features.

|
Powerful code editing
With code completion and full validation, your coding will be quicker and more accurate, enabling you to build Series 40
web apps faster.
|
Comprehensive range of examples
The range of web app examples has been expanded in Nokia Web Tools 2.0. You can now easily access more examples of how to
code common web app APIs and features.
|
|
Improved HTML/CSS validation
Validation of HTML and CSS now includes specific Series 40 web apps rules. Now you can get better feedback to ensure your
web app will work optimally on Series 40 phones..
|
Partial web app upload
When uploading a web app to the preview server, Nokia Web Tools only uploads changed content. This makes starting a cloud
preview faster, reducing the time needed to test your web apps.
|
|
Packaging
Your web apps are automatically packed by the tool and delivered in the format required for distribution through Nokia Store.
|
Published web apps JAR
Once your web app has been published to Nokia store you can request a copy of the deployment JAR. This enables you to distribute
your web app on web sites and through other app stores.
|
|
Deploy for phone testing
Completed Series 40 web apps can be deployed directly from the Web Developer Environment for testing on a Series 40 phone.
|
Web App Simulator
Run your Series 40 web apps on a computer during development using the Web App Simulator. It simplifies functional testing
and final design validation.
Phone simulation
Preview your Series 40 web apps to see how they will look and behave on Series 40 phones, and interact with the web.
|
|
Control phone features
Take control of your simulation and test your web apps against all the UI variations available on the phones that support
Series 40 web apps.
|
Location simulation built-in
Web App Simulator enables you to define location information to your simulated Series 40 web app, making testing of location-aware
apps a breeze.
|
|
Debugging made easy
Web App Simulator includes a custom version of Web Inspector for the easy debugging and performance analysis of your Series
40 web apps.
