Mobile App Development Intro

Description

Writing a first app is easier when you know the pieces involved. These 14 PDF lessons start with mobile platforms and app types, then explain how to set up a development environment and learn basic programming concepts for apps.

You read about designing a first app interface, building a simple app, working with user input and data, and testing and debugging. Later lessons cover advanced features, app security, preparing for launch, publishing and marketing, and building a portfolio. The last lesson suggests next steps. Checklists and exercises in the PDFs support the reading, but you will need your own computer to try the examples.
