Building Mobile Apps is a vital skill.
You want to build a mobile app, but maybe Java and Objective-C aren't your thing? What are your options? Everyone knows Javascript, right? But how do you create mobile apps with Javascript
What's really special about this class is that it's not heavily scripted or a contrived example app. It is live, you can ask questions. It's real. Just like real life application development.
There's a lack of intermediate and advanced resources around building mobile apps.
Cordova used to be called PhoneGap. It allows you to build applications for iOS and Android using one code base! You write javascript and it will wrap that up to run on each phone platform for you. The great thing is, the Meteor.js platform has built in most of the tooling you need to make this super easy! Can you imagine building a real-time mobile app in just a few hours? That is exactly what this class will do for you.
Sure, you can head over to the Meteor Forums with your questions. But oftentimes you only hear crickets in response. Posting to Stack Overflow about Cordova can be a gamble, too—will someone be kind enough to follow-up? Is a true Cordova or Meteor expert replying to your question?
When learning any new framework or language, it's easy to hit a wall. And sometimes give up before you ever really get started. Don't worry, this is a LIVE class. It's real. You get to see me think through problems, right when I hit them, and we'll work through this together.
Introducing Building Mobile Apps with Javascript!
I created the Building Mobile Apps class to walk beginner and intermediate devs through the process of building a React & Meteor app from scratch. Building Mobile is a comprehensive, multi-session online course that takes you through the intricacies of building a React.js + Meteor.js app for the app stores in just 4 hours.
Follow along in a fishbowl style pairing session where you can listen and watch as I build a reactive Urban Spoon clone. You’ll be able to ask questions, in real time—myself and other students will help you.
You'll learn how to:
- organize your files
- fetch data from remote APIs
- Handle mobile login
- Work with native phone features like location and camera
- Debug your mobile apps
- Output a build for the app stores
- Use GeoJSON and maps to build a UI
- and more!
If you're tired of browsing the web for tutorials or reading through countless Stack Overflow posts to find the exact answer you need, then it's time to start mastering mobile.
Building Mobile Apps with Javascript, the good parts.
The defining feature of this course is that it's not heavily scripted. It is a live class. It's real. You get to see and hear my thought process as we work through features and encounter bugs. Just like real-life application development.
A few other things that make Building Mobile Apps with Javascript different:
- We build a real app—an urban spoon clone—not some to-do list example.
- The class is over 4 hours of in-depth live instruction.
- Don't get stuck waiting for answers, ask questions right as you have them..
- The course comes with a money back guarantee—Not satisfied? Get your money back within 7 days.
My goal isn't just to teach you how to build one mobile app. I want to give you the tools and know-how to build dozens of apps. This is your chance to gain practical real-world knowledge of Cordova, React.js, and Meteor.js.
As a sign up bonus, you will receive:
- Access to to the live class, via video conference service.
- Access to the Github repo that has the app we build in class.
- Access to a video recording of the class when we finish..
- organize your files
- fetch data from remote APIs
- Handle mobile login
- Work with native phone features like location and camera
- Debug your mobile apps
- Output a build for the app stores
- Use GeoJSON and maps to build a UI
