Hacks

In this final part of the Mensacard hack trilogy, I will present the results of the Cordova app and use an Arduino NFC shield to read the information of the card. »

In this post, unfortunately, I will not be able to tell you more exciting stuff about either the card itself or the app reading/writing it. Instead, I will provide you with some insights into the Cordova-based framework Ionic and why I recommend you to NOT use it. This may sounds quite boring, but this is how stories about the fugacity of software frameworks are. »

In this little series I will try to duplicate the RFID based card of my local cafeteria. On the way I will explore many nice tools and frameworks like the Android SDK, Apache Cordova, JavaScript based app programming, NFC/RFID technology, databases, and maybe even some Arduino related stuff. »
