Report: Apple Developing 'Gianduia' as Flash Alternative

Authored by Mark Hefflinger on May 10, 2010 - 9:22am.
Los Angeles - Apple (NASD: AAPL) is developing an alternative to Adobe's (NASD: ADBE) Flash, which it banned developers from using on its iPhone and iPad products, Apple Insider reported.

The Gianduia technology, described as a client-side, standards-based framework for rich Internet apps, was first introduced at Apple's World of WebObjects Developer Conference last year.

Gianduia has reportedly been in use at Apple's own retail stores -- in the form of the One to One program, iPhone reservation system, and Concierge service for Genius Bar reservations.

Apple recently modified the terms of its developer agreement for the iPhone, banning the use of third-party development platforms like Adobe's Flash.
