                  Developing an App


                  There are many open source app development software available. They helps us to develop an app.
                  While developing an app we should keep some points in mind:
                      The idea of developing an app should be unique.
                      The app we are going to develop should contain all the relevant features.
                      The app should be user friendly.

                  Let  us  create  a  mobile  app  with  the  help  of  a  freeware  software  provided  by  Google  called
                  App Inventor. With the help of App Inventor, we can create apps.

                  App Inventor
                  App Inventor is a free app development tool, provided by Massachusetts Institute of Technology
                  (MIT). With the help of App Inventor, we can create apps for smartphones. The working of the App
                  Inventor is similar to Scratch programming language in which we drag and drop blocks for making
                  an app. App Inventor has two basic views:

                  a.  Design View: This view contains all the components required to design an application.
                  b.   Block Editor View: This view is the place where we combine blocks to execute an application.

                  Setting up App Inventor

                  For  setting  up  the  App  Inventor,  we  should  have  a  Gmail  account. To  create an  app  using  App
                  Inventor, follow the given steps:


                                            1 Type URL: https://appinventor.mit.edu/ and press Enter key.
