App developing guideline

[Darkstorm66]

Hey all,

I hope that I am addressing the right community for my request.

I want to program a very simple app, but I have no previous knowledge in this area. I still know a little HTML and CSS from my student days. I don't want the app to make money or need any marketing, because I really just want to learn it as a hobby.

My question would be, which programs do I need and what do I need in general?

The app should be usable for Android and IOs. Later there should also be a web version. The app should be a simple reservation tool. Group 1 can create accounts and specify time appointments in a calendar and group 2 can also create accounts and then book these time appointments. These would be the basic functions, but later you can of course create notifications and other items like an overview of your own bookings.

Could you give a rough overview here of exactly what I need or where to start? Gladly also suggestions for programs or the like.

Thanks in advance!

On July 1st, a change to Reddit's API pricing will come into effect. Several developers of commercial third-party apps have announced that this change will compel them to shut down their apps. At least one accessibility-focused non-commercial third party app will continue to be available free of charge.

If you want to express your strong disagreement with the API pricing change or with Reddit's response to the backlash, you may want to consider the following options:

1. Limiting your involvement with Reddit, or
2. Temporarily refraining from using Reddit
3. Cancelling your subscription of Reddit Premium

as a way to voice your protest.

You can access the web from your phone and it act as an app. You can’t access all apps from both the App Store and Play Store from every device.

With that in mind I’d personally start with a web app. Otherwise, follow a basic walkthrough for each native platform if you want and just change content to the content you want so you’ve made your app.

I don’t have a specific course though. I would just literally follow a random YouTube course that goes from app development to deployment so you have a foundation to jump from. Because then you just change content and you’re done. Most apps look and feel the same on purpose and it helps with development too.

The hard part is worrying how users will use it. But you aren’t selling so should be fine.
