Mobile App Developer Jr (Newbie)
What is covered in the course?
AppMakr is an easy app creation platform that lets anyone make their own iPhone apps, Android apps and HTML5 mobile formatted websites —with no coding required. We believe in apps for everyone, and we mean it. If you’ve got content to share, there’s an app to be made with it.
This training comes packed with enriched details for students who have strong interest in app development. It provides the students with all the essential knowledge and practical skills needed in app design.
For the students who are new to app creation (and coding in general), the course is constructed with a series of practices and an app creation project, so the students can deepen their understanding of the app design principles when they complete the course.
