Hi Leokan,

I'll try to answer your questions :)

1.- Mobile. Far beyond Cordova, other option is  Electron (
https://royale.apache.org/how-to-create-a-desktop-application-with-royale-and-electron/),
But I think AIR is another option too, since AIR allowed native HTML apps
to be wrapped too. I must say that I did not try that option but others
did, since the Electro tutorial was by Judah. So I think you have 3 options
that you can use. Since App builders are just about taking an HTML/JS/CSS
app and wrap it, I think it is more in the side of the app builder solution
itself, and Royale must focus on making it possible to build whatever you
need and in the integrations.

2.- Documentation is here: https://apache.github.io/royale-docs/get-started
Of course, we tried to do our best, but still we need to continue working
on it, but I think it is enough these days to start. We continue populating
it since it is a parallel task.

3.- SDK: I think nowadays current released version 0.9.7 is in good shape (
https://royale.apache.org/apache-royale-v0-9-7-released/), but other
option, if you want to be up to date is use a nightly build (
https://royale.apache.org/get-involved/ - check at the bottom of the page)

My perception is that we are in a version very close to 1.0., or said in
other words, I find each day we can do whatever we want with Royale in its
current state, and proof is the examples I posted. But, I'm more for
continuing to improve it so reaching the magic number of "1.0", will be
more the smoothest experience for a new user.

We already have many needed things like Routing, Themes, AMF, HTTPService,
IoC, DI, etc, etc, etc... so in the current state is just a matter of
filling the latest few holes. Most of them are reported by users like you
that are helping us to fill that issue. I think it is important for users
to be involved in the community and the project to report issues and try to
help since you can find some issue, and as an Open Source project you need
to do open communication with the project so we all can solve any issues.
