"We recently reviewed the beautifully put together and highly rated productivity app Clear, and an HTML5 version\u00A0developed by a fan of the service has now surfaced.\r\n\r\nIts creator, who built the app in just two days, goes by the\u00A0pseudonym of\u00A0'Evan You' and is a Masters degree candidate now seeking employment. He tweeted a link to this particularly unique creation to Impending, the company behind Clear.\r\n@UseClear : I loved the design so much that I built it in HTML5 - vimeo.com/37182785\r\n\r\n\u2014 Evan You (@youyuxi) February 21, 2012\r\nOur own Matthew Panzarino believes that Clear is one of those apps that &amp;quot;makes you re-think the way that you\u2019ve been using apps altogether, breaking the mold and re-forming it with just a few minutes of use&amp;quot;, and it has been well received.\r\n\r\nThe HTML5 version, which is yet to be tested on Android, is missing a couple of small details from the app, mainly the pinch gesture which opens a new item and a number of other swipe-based functions. However, the creation is largely the same and it demonstrates how quickly an app can be built in HTML5 while maintaining most of the core functionality of a fully fledged app.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nEvan put together a short video to show the HTML5 version, explaining his efforts in a little more detail:\r\nI was fascinated by the innovative gesture controls and wanted to see if I can implement the look and feel in HTML5 using CSS3 transitions. Didn't get 100% of the details, and there are a lot of bugs, but it looks pretty close.\r\n\r\n\r\nHTML5 Clear from Evan You on Vimeo.\r\n\r\nDevelopers that are curious can peruse the source code which is posted to the Evan's github here.\r\n\r\nIt seems Evan has just spent some time visiting Google, we think someone is likely to snap him up soon based on this app, let alone his other work.\r\n\r\nWhile he didn't build the app to get a job at Impending per se, it is likely to gain attention with tech firms, as it should. It just one of a number of increasingly creative ways of grabbing the attention of would-be employers, such as\u00A0this\u00A0open letter to Instagram\u00A0that we wrote about over the weekend.\r\n\r\nWhy not take a look at the HTML5 version and, if you haven't already, download the Clear app for a comparison. You'll be impressed. Now all we need is for Impending to release a fully functioning Web-based version.\r\n\r\n\u27A4\u00A0Clear HTML5\u00A0| Clear App [App Store]\r\n\r\nRead the latest app news right now at TNW Apps."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
