I want to make an iPhone app? Where to start?
I'm somewhat familiar with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript and want to make an app. I'm thinking of my app looking like a typical app with a tab bar on the bottom that can take you to certain parts of the app. Is there an easy way to create the tab bar interface? I figured using Xcode will make it easier but I'm not sure at all. So I have a few questions and they will seem dumb… 1. My app asks for users to create an account. I know how to make a form for people to sign up and click submit using HTML, however I have no clue what happens after they click submit. How and where is there information saved and what would I need to code this? 2. Is using Xcode smart or should I just use sublime instead and how do I apply my tab bar? Thank you for your help I know this is really newbie stuff but I really want to learn!
Might it not be a better idea to decide what you want the app(lication) to do first?
IOS apps are primarily written using Swift, the successor to Objective-C.
For a form based app, the same general principles apply: you create a GUI / form, set event handlers for the buttons, etc.
However, and that's a big however, for an app that has user accounts, you will need a backend. Just like for a website that has user accounts.
You don't seem to be familiar with actually handling the form data, since you've only mentioned client-side languages so far.
You have two options: learn backend programming by extending your website knowledge to PHP, and try to create an account system in a familiar environment.
Or start learning Swift, but hold off with the server-based stuff for now.
- Where do I start if I Want to Make an App but have no experience whatsoever? I really have no experience but all I want to do is develop a simple iPhone app. Not a game but sort of like a comment stream to put it in short terms. I learn things pretty quickly but I'm just looking for a starting point. So feel free to share your opinion on what is the best way to approach this new skill so I can learn the best way
- What language should I start with to start developing iOS apps? If I want to develop iPhone apps, should I learn Python first or just go straight to objective C or learn something else? I have 0 programming skills and have only done some web development. I have a Mac and Xcode.
- What do I do if I want to turn off everything that can make my iPhone 4S make noise? I want to bring my cell phone into class with me, but last time I did that it started playing music and my friends Siri started working. I just want to bring it in class and not have to worry about having it start making noise and me getting ISS. Please* don't put down that I shouldn't be bringing my phone to class because I really have to. Anyway I want to know all the things I need to turn off in order for it not to make any noise at all.
- Want to create an iphone, and other smart phone app? WHERE DO I START? I'm only 15, i'm a girl and i don't want to study game technology in college. The app is going to have games but you create something and you share with your followers (i'm not going to say what it is exactly cuz of people out there who might steal my idea) how did the creator of instagram start? My app is kinda like instagram but you don't share photos. WHERE DO I START AND HOW? Do i need to go to business school or something?
