Lima : Browser based Cydia Alternative
Monday, May 2, 2011 11:38 PM
The developers of Icy, Infini Dev Team, another 3rd party jailbreak installer, have another Cydia alternative in the offing called Lima. Lima is a new browser based version of Cydia that does not need to be installed to your iDevice. Lima is accessible over the internet and will be the first major attempt to make a browser based version of Cydia. It’s just like Android Market or Amazon Appstore for Android, which both allow for browser-based software discovery and installation.
You can take a look at a YouTube preview of Lima below:
How will Lima work ?
Lima will get it’s own webpage where users will sign in and surf all the apps on Lima and download it to their iDevices directly. You will able to install apps, packages, tweaks, themes etc. right from the convenience of your browser. Developers will also be able to put their apps on Lima for sale, which is great news for those who are going to take a developing start on iOS without “restrictions”.
Lima is currently still in alpha phase. For more info stay tuned to Modyourpod or visit the official Infini Dev Team's website here. Let us know what you think about the Lima installer in the comments section below.
