Image manipulation in hybrid mobile apps - image-processing

i'd like to ask if there is possibility to write sth like instagram app but not as native application, just hybrid app (titanium or phonegap with ui frameworks)?
Most of functionality for me is possible to implement, but i wonder about image manipulation.
I have experience in appcelerator titanium and icenium(cordova with kendoui) and my idea is to create app in titanium with webview where i will use some JS manipulation scripts, i've found pixastic.com and CamanJS.com(camanjs is not possible to implement i thing in my situation) so pixastic seems the best.. or any other ideas?
What do you think about performance of this solution? Any experiences about this issue? Any suggestions?

Check out this post right here: Create Instagram-esque filters with javascript? sounds like it could direct you in the right way.

Scraping data and showing it in an ios app

I'm creating a app where i'm scraping news and then showing them it an app. However i've experience some issues with news containing tables or other complex structure which is not possible to show in a ios application. There for i'm starting to think that it might be better just to create the news in html5 and then show them in a UIWebView. However how viable is this? or is there any better solutions for such?
Create the news in html5 and then show them in a WebView: is good way .. but you have to strong in html & javascript to handle scroll & contain display issue/ ready to compromise with image quality / know to handle java script call in native / can able to work on safari->develop-> debug .
Easy way : If you try in iOS you will find solution for complex structure display .

Embedd HTML5 inside native iOS Application

i am searching for a way to extend my native iOS App (written in Objective-C) with HTML5/CSS/JS
So i could write parts of my App´s Code in HTML like a basic shop or similar where code in HTML already exists.
But i don´t want to destroy the great native like look and feel or make users think they left the app and entered a scaled-down version of Safari or similar. So they won´t even feel they are on external HTML on the net.
I want a HTML page inside my App but with full advantages of device like animations, transitions, preloading, no borders. Maybe even make use of device functions like accessing camera, sound and so on.
How could this be done if possible?
thanks in advance
You could use JavaScriptCore as a bridge between your native app and Javascript logic. You can also use a UIWebView to bridge between your native and web apps using something like this.
You could explore UIWebView https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/UIKit/Reference/UIWebView_Class/
Though offhand I am not sure if it supports everything you are hoping for in terms of animation/etc.
Your choices are:
PhoneGap
Titanium
UIWebView

iOS: How can I get safari style tabs/windows?

I have seen some iOS apps that use the same tab/window mechanism as mobile safari, but I am having difficulty figuring out how that works. Does anyone know how to do this? Or do you know of a good tutorial?
TIA
EDIT 1
It looks like there are no built in libraries to do this, but if anyone knows about a good third party component I would greatly appreciate it.

Which one is better for social networking integration in iOS development?

I have searched on net for social networking integration in iOS projects (For example: Facebook, Twitter, etc)
I found there are also SDKs available for particulars and some OpenSource projects/frameworks are also available for the same which combines all into one like (ShareKit).
What is the difference in those two? Which one is better to use? Is there any problem to upload an app on AppStore which is using ShareKit framework/code?
Thanks in advance.

If you are using ARC in your project ShareKit is a big waste of time.
Twitter can be added very easily using the Twitter framework and TWTweetComposeViewController. Not sure about any others.

If you are only looking to use Twitter and Facebook, then it is simple enough to just use their API and implement it in your code.
If you are new to development or want to use more (Delicious, Tumblr, Read It Later, Bit.ly, Mail), then I would highly recommend using ShareKit. It allows for sharing of text, URLs and even images. It takes less than an hour to setup even when using ARC and comes with a sample app to play around with. It is also easy to update when more features are added or the API of one the sites changes.
