[PD] mobile devices: knowledge gathering

[Dan Wilcox]

I would also throw in my PdParty for iOS: http://danomatika.com/code/pdparty <http://danomatika.com/code/pdparty>

Also, if you want to write a patch that works the same on Android and iOS, PdParty supports a large subset of DroidParty objects to facilitate this.

If you want something beyond basic Pd GUIs, you will probably need to develop things at a lower level. There are a number of examples for using libpd on both Android and iOS (although some may be a little bit old by now): https://github.com/libpd <https://github.com/libpd>

No, GEM as it is will not run on any mobile device that is OpenGL ES only, as it has not been targeted or optimized for ES. That, plus, it would probably be a nightmare to update the build system to support Android...
