Apps Need Your Involvement in Ebook Creation (app building, creation & monetization)

I am a .Net Developer, I have a small background in Java and I have always wanted to dabble in app dev, and with my recent msdn subscription I am now a registered Windows app developer, they provide some decent guides of some things you need to know. I still don't know everything I need to do to really start though..

But that is windows I haven't a clue what to do with android.

I think a few things to include would be something along the lines of this :

What you need:
- Computer Hardware
* recommended ram
* recommended HD space
* recommended cpu

- Software
* OS (not everyone knows that other OSs can help)
* IDE
* how to properly configure the software

What you need to know:
* Language (are there any programming languages that will help be successful?)

Ways to think of good ideas

The development process

The testing process

The Deployment process
- Putting it on the Google play store.


Walk through of a meaningless app where you go step by step from either the barebones beginning or the beginning from thought process of thinking of this app.

I think one of the best ways to learn is by example. And I think if you were to end the book with an example of everything you covered would be a good thing. Then readers would have their first app that they could then further develop into something of their own and learn more from.

I think you have a good idea, there are plenty of guides to do this already... But I think if you can put it all together into one piece where someone can look at and have it nicely laid out for them they would be willing to pay for it.

Hi

I searched through your blog/website and I didn't find out what apps do you have made (or your 'employees'). Why didn't you put your portfolio there?

Yeah, what have you published? Also, I'd market towards programmers that lack business experience, rather than people who lack coding experience.

I agree, best target for this kind of literature would be the programmers
themselves. People who are not already involved with android development and are just looking for another 'get-me-rich-quick' tutorial will quickly turn off when they see how much it really takes to have a decent income from Play Store.
