Codiqa
Codiqa enables anyone to build mobile websites without writing a single line of code. In addition, thanks to its multi-projects and multi-users capabilities, Codiqa is a valuable tool for web agencies who want to develop mobile websites for their clients. More interestingly, Codiqa allows users to download mobisites source codes and host themselves their creations.

Our review on Codiqa mobile and tablet website builder
The properties of various elements (i.e. various modules) of Codiqa based mobisite are already pre-optimized even before the user do anything. Thus, better than most if its competitors, Codiqa enables its user to create in no time a modern and professional grade mobile website regardless of his design skill.
Despite all this, Codiqa remains flexible as far as mobile page layout and page’s contents organization are concerned. Actually not only Codiqa lets the user to assemble module by module each page of his mobile website, but also it allows him to set without restriction modules sizes, modules order and modules dimensions.
In my point of view, Codiqa is recommended if one wants to create a custom mobile website without worrying too much about design optimization. It is a good alternative for professional developers and business owners who deals with standard mobile projects (mobile presence website, business showcase mobile website, etc.)
By cons, unless you are willing to edit manually codes, Codiqa is pretty restricted at design customizability. It is therefore less suitable for users wishing to invest in a highly customized mobile project.

How to use codiqa
On Codiqa, a mobile website is made of many mobile pages linked together. In turn each page consists of many modules of various function assembled as a whole. Embedded function may vary from one module to another. Some modules are used for instance as raw text container while others are for making title, button or navigation menu.
To create a mobile website on Codiqa, you need first to create some blank pages. Then you should construct each page by dragging necessaries modules from the library.
When modules are in place, you can customize each of them by adding you contents (text or picture to display, etc..) and specifying their properties (icon , format, style, etc..) through corresponding filling forms.
If necessary, you may change the look of one or more pages of your mobile website by loading Codiqa’s pre-set color setting.
