davepamn Active Member Licensed User Longtime User Sep 22, 2016 #3 I am going to try the hello world tutorial https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/webapp-hello-world-web-app.39808/ I am writing an HTML front end written in react that talks to a web services (b4j) through JSON. The B4J will become the http server to communicate with the web client. I can then use the b4j server to asychrononous communicate with devices by ip and use streaming to send and receive data Last edited: Sep 22, 2016 Upvote 0

davepamn Active Member Licensed User Longtime User Sep 22, 2016 #4 The tutorial worked. Impressive. I was able to debug the server side code using the b4j tool. This is a big improvement over nodejs and express. b4j has a smaller footprint and is easier to code for the client click events. Last edited: Sep 22, 2016 Upvote 0
