Can DrupalGap consume Views as HTML?

Question

Is it necessary to write all the mobile app's own html files for displaying Drupal configured Blocks / Pages / Views? I was hoping I could just rebuild my primary Navigation menus using the DrupalGap settings.php files or hook_menu, but leave the callbacks to just inject the return HTML?

For example...

drupalgap.settings.menus['user_menu_standard'] = {
    links:[
    {
        title: 'A Title',
        path: '/some-content-type',
        options: {
            attributes: {
                'data-theme': 'b'
            }
        }
    },
};


function my_module_menu() {
  var items = {};
  items['airlines'] = {
    title: 'airlines',
    page_callback: 'my_module_airlines_page'
  }  
  return items;
}

// No mobile dedicated html file necessary. I essentially want a webview with a phonegap native menu.
function my_module_airlines_page(html) {
  div.innerHTML = html;
}

Is this - or something similar - possible to automatically reuse the Drupal's front-end within DrupalGap?

DrupalGap is typically used to consume Views as JSON results. It can then use the JSON to decide how to display the HTML inside the app.

Check out this example for creating a page in your App that will fetch and display Views content:

Out of the box, it easily lets you create lists and tables of your Views data.
