The QNX SDK for Apps and Media is a development platform that includes multimedia support, an application management framework, and a chromeless browser powered by the SDK's browser engine. To demostrate the capabilities of this browser engine, the SDK also includes a web browser application's chrome written entirely in HTML5. These features give you the tools to create a wide variety of native and web-based applications for embedded systems.
