    Hello, I am wanting to directly connect a PhoneGap app on an Andriod Tablet by a USB cable, run BreakoutJS, to an Arduinos board. There is not a web server or other device between them. Can we use BreakoutJS in this way? If so, what do we put in the host / port line of script? Thank you

    Hi,
    This is not currently possible because BreakoutJS can only communicate over a websocket. It probably wouldn’t be to difficult to get it to work with PhoneGap. You’d need to swap out the WebSocket interface for PhoneGap’s serial interface. See the file Breakout/src/core/WSocketWrapper.js and how it is integrated into Breakout/src/core/IOBoard.js.
