Your idea for a new app is going to transform the marketplace and the world, or maybe it will just become a fun and engrossing hobby. But there’s one problem: You don’t know anything about software programming. The good news is that although computers and the internet seem unimaginably complex, under the hood, every app consists of simple pieces. Software developers build those pieces and fit them together, one at a time and step by step.
In this webcast, you’ll be introduced to some of the most important concepts for modern apps and how they work. From writing and debugging software, to databases and application programmer interfaces (APIs), you’ll discover how programming is both much easier and much harder than it looks — the basic ideas can be grasped by anyone, but difficulties multiply when major software encompasses thousands (or millions) of interconnected pieces.
