How to Make a Mobile Application?

App Development

07 Oct 2021

In 2021, partly due to the global pandemic, we have witnessed an explosion in the digital world. The number of users who perform tasks from their devices has increased in an extraordinary way, and along with them, the demand for mobile applications to improve productivity or enjoy their leisure time, among other things.

Naturally, the increase in demand for applications also it increases the number of developers. Many companies, both multinationals and SMEs, know that having a mobile app is a valuable resource, almost essential to maintaining their competitiveness.
This demand makes the profession of app developer a bet for the future for those who are looking for their first job or want to expand their options. How do you make a mobile application? What do you have to study to become an app development professional?

What do you have to study to develop a mobile app?
To develop mobile applications, there is not a single specialty that can be studied. Some decide to take specific app creation courses, while others choose to study Computer Engineering to have a more complete knowledge. Then there are courses in stage design, animation and 3D rendering, which generate environments and characters that are sometimes needed, especially if it is about programming video games for mobile phones.

In addition, there are different types of applications with different characteristics, further expanding the catalog of developers for whom you can prepare. Some of these focus on leisure or productivity, and others are designed to improve security, manage large volumes of data, augmented reality for interior design and decoration and a long etcetera. That is why you may also need knowledge about calculation, web design, AI or social networks, depending on the degree of specialization for which you want to prepare.

When it comes to app programming languages, there is also a wide variety. The most visible areas are developed in HTML or JavaScript, and backend are Java, C. PHP. Python and more. Depending on how you study one or the other, you can be a front-end developer (visual part, which is shown to the user), back-end (the internal codes that make the app work) or a full-stack developer, who moves through both fields with the same skill. The normal thing is to study to be the latter professional and be able to make a mobile application from scratch to the final result.

Of course, it is also highly recommended to study English because it is the language in which we find the greatest amount of resources. The main forums and sites with updated information are in this language. Not to mention programming languages, whose commands are also handled in the language of Shakespeare.

It does not hurt to have knowledge of marketing and trend analysis. This is because it is important to know the potential that an app can have before developing it. If an application is built that is not going to reach the right audience, a great deal of time and resources will have been wasted.

Therefore, it is necessary to study one or more of these disciplines to develop a mobile application:

  • Graphic design, animation and 3D.
  • Big Data.
  • Cybersecurity.
  • Programming languages (front-end and back-end).
  • Market analysis and research.
  • Development of multiplatform applications.

For users with programming knowledge, there are also very useful tools, which facilitate several of the tasks necessary to launch a mobile app:

  • PhoneGap works with HTML5, JavaScript and CSS3, and has a wide range of resources that allow access to various elements of the mobile such as contacts or the camera. Once the application is programmed, it uses virtualization to run depending on the device's OS (iOS / Mac or Android). Aimed at users with advanced development knowledge.
  • iBuild App has a good collection of templates that facilitate the development of applications of all kinds. In addition, the person responsible for creating the application can choose between allowing advertising or access to a clean paid version.
  • Appcelerator Titanium uses JavaScript and converts it to the native code of the chosen mobile system. It is quite easy to use and has an intuitive handling, so that newcomers to app development can handle it with ease. Although for the Layout part, you need something else because you do not have HTML programming.
  • Flutter is a tool developed by Google, although it is not only used to create applications on Android. In fact, it goes beyond the development of mobile apps and can also be programmed for Windows PCs. Linux and Mac.
