تفاصيل الدورة

Modern businesses are using custom mobile applications to deliver information to their customers quickly and easily. Providing a great app experience is import to a business, providing a portal to relay information to customers and encouraging interaction. The key to the success of any application is a great development life cycle from the initial wireframe concept to final deployment.

This programme is aimed at students with little or no experience with app development and wish to further their knowledge in mobile programming and app development.

Programme Aims and Objectives

To aid the development of a great app, a wide range of functionality is now available to mobile applications in the form of many sensors that are available such as GPS information, cameras, proximity sensors and accelerometers. In addition to this, a wide range of cloud-based services can provide a wealth of information to an app to enhance the user experience.

On completion of this course, students will have acquired the skills to:

• Set up the required library packages and software for developing a basic app
• Begin with an initial concept and convert the concept into a set of specifications for an app
• Utilise available services on the web and integrate them into their app
• Access GPS and sensor information from a mobile device
• Access cloud-based services from mobile devices
• Assess the environments where the app will be running and design a plan to correctly fulfil the needs of the environment
• Deploy a fully working app to the marketplace
