Want to get in to web development & mobile app development?

Question

Assume I am a beginner who knows absolutely nothing about programming/development-- what languages or courses should I be learning in order to develop web pages and iphone apps?

Please suggest the languages in order since they often build on others.

Answer 1

Use C# and C++ for Iphone development and PHP for web pages. I will also suggest to visit some IPhone Development website for some tips and ideas for free.

Answer 2

Web Application Development is the process of developing application for the online web browser and is developed to run / be compatible across various browsers. On the other hand, Desktop/Mobile app development refers to developing apps specifically for the PC or handheld portable devices. The choice of developing a web based or mobile based app depends on the developer team and the basic requisite for the app. Most importantly, the niche you want to reach out to. Is your target group web-based or does it require a mobile app to access anytime anywhere. A web app can also be made responsive across devices. Moreover, it depends on the briefing you have received from the client as well. For Mobile application, it also depends the kind of functionality you are looking for your application. If you want to push some personalized notification to the user and provide them some features related to GPS, etc. where you want to know the location of the user etc. then go for mobile app. Desktop app: if the UI of the application is heavy and it also requires good amount of transactions, also if the requirement is not of a web application, Desktop is the best choice.
