Salesforce1 Mobile App Developer Guide
jAbout Force.com Canvas
Force.com Canvas features include:
- Language Independence—You develop it and we display it.
With Force.com Canvas you can develop in the language of your choice and easily surface
the app inside of the Salesforce1 app.
The third-party app that you want to expose as a canvas app can be written in any language. The only requirement is that the app has a secure URL (HTTPS).
- JavaScript SDK—Lightweight and easy-to-use JavaScript libraries allow your app to authenticate and communicate without having to deal with cross-domain network issues. This gives your users a single command center to drive all their apps.
- Simplified Authentication—Allows you to authenticate by using OAuth 2.0 or a signed request. This means that your app can connect to Salesforce at the data layer while remaining seamless for users.
- App Registration and Management—Developers can create apps and allow their customers to install them with a single click. Administrators can easily install apps from developers, and quickly manage who in their organizations can use the app.
