Hi All,
Before beginning my question, I would like to tell that coming from an RPG background, my knowledge web development is very minimal.
However, I have now been fortunate enough to get into a company that uses Profound UI and get introduced to web programming through using the beautiful profound UI interface.
However, I am having beginner issues when trying to understand how the elements of a mobile android app designed with Profound are connected with each other.
So we have an APK that is built through Phonegap. If I understand correctly, Phonegap allows development of mobile apps through web tech (HTML, CSS and JS) while performing similar to apps built using native mobile technology.
So I have this folder which contains the APK elements (node modules, node modules, html files, css and js files) from where the APK is built.
I am trying to understand how the APK is pulling up the screens that were built with profoundui. I have skimmed through several HTML files but I could not really find any of the screens we created. Can anyone help me with general info on what actually the APK file would contain and where I can see code which connects it to the profound elements.

Re: How android APK's connect to Profound?
We have documentation on how to connect with PhoneGap here:
https://docs.profoundlogic.com/display/ ... h+PhoneGap
You'll notice in the documentation you set up pui["serverURL"], which is an HTTP or HTTPS URL that points to your Profound UI instance on IBM i. That is how it accesses your screens.
