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 smart phones. The working of 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:
                  Design View: This view contains all the components required to design an application.


                  Block Editor View: This view is the place where we combine blocks to execute an application.
