Tizen Features

Tizen tutorials teach you how to incorporate Tizen features into your application. The tutorials cover detailed code snippets to help you see how to write the required code in practice.

Select the feature you are interested in and see how you can implement its various functionalities into your application.

The following tutorials demonstrate features provided by the Tizen Web Device API:

• Base: Managing the Basic Tizen Features
  Demonstrates how you can manage the common files and zip archive files, handle events, and organize data.
• Application Framework: Controlling Your Applications
  Demonstrates how you can manage various types of applications and packages, badges, notifications, input devices, and events, and communicate with other Web or native applications.
• Content: Getting and Handling Content
  Demonstrates how you can manage files, playlists, and downloads, and view file details.
• Messaging: Managing Messages and Push Notifications
  Demonstrates how you can create, send, and read messages, manage messages in the message storage, and handle push notifications.
• Multimedia: Controlling and Playing Multimedia
  Demonstrates how you can manage the media keys, device sound levels, FM radio, and media controller.
• Network: Connecting to the Network and Communicating with Messages
  Demonstrates how you can send data to networks and other applications, and receive data back from them.
• System: Getting System Information and Managing Devices
  Demonstrates how you can manage and retrieve information from the device and its sensors.
• Account: Managing Accounts and Account Information in mobile applications only
  Demonstrates how you can manage accounts and retrieve account information.
• Social: Managing Personal Data in mobile applications only
  Demonstrates how you can manage the user's personal data, such as contacts, calendars, location data, and call and browsing history, on the device.

Note:In Tizen Web Device APIs, there are 2 types of APIs: mandatory and optional.The mandatory APIs are always available on all Tizen devices. The optional APIs provide functionality that depends on the available device hardware or software capabilities, and they may not be available in all Tizen devices. For example, the Bluetooth and NFC API hardware features are optional, and not supported on all devices.
To determine the availability of optional APIs, use the tizen.systeminfo.getCapability() method of the System Information API (in mobile and wearable applications).
Note that all mandatory APIs are supported on the Tizen Emulators, while the optional APIs may or may not be supported. For the details of each API, see Tizen Web Device API Reference.

For more information about implementing the UI for your application using the Advanced UI Framework (TAU) features, see TAU.

In addition to the Tizen Web Device API tutorials above, you can implement the following features:

• Service Application: Creating a Service Application in wearable applications only
  Demonstrates how you can create a wearable Web service application.
