*This might be suited better for another forum but it seemed fitting with Apps and Games*
I'm looking to make Apps (and a twitterbot) and was wondering if anybody else here has done it before?
apps for what?
android or iOS?
EDIT: or windows phone?... but you know... ha ha.
Whaaaaaaaaatttt??????? Windows phone doesn't have a following? Say it aint so.

I was gonna start on iOS and eventually collaborate with a friend in college to go cross platform. But I don't know yet, I still have to learn Java
Your average phone app has about 50k lines of code.
Java is the cross-platform language but for iOS most people use objective-c .
Java is mostly used for android app development. Ofc, if you know Java you can cross over and learn C and objective-c more easily.
You'll also need the SDK for iOS development and some info. Here are some useful links.
some guy who offers some insight:
Design Then Code: Building iOS Apps From Scratch
From apple:
https://developer.apple.com/library...l.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40011343-CH3-SW1
https://developer.apple.com/library...ogrammingGuide/Introduction/Introduction.html
And here is the developer toolkit:

for iOS 7.
It's going to take a while ,a few months until you become familiar with the programming language and then it'll take time to develop it. Don't get frustrated or give up. Think of it as learning an actual new language with rigid syntax norms and vocabulary. Like all languages, you need time and practice to master it.
Best of luck.
Thank you! I just started learning Python (for the Twitterbot).
I didn't realize it was THAT much code. But then again thats basically a long essay which, as a college student, I am adept at doing haha. I was just looking to make money in my down time at school if possible. Thank you for the links though!

Ya, wait till you are trying to "correct" the essay, and looking through 100 pages of code to find one spot you put a ',' instead of a '.' Or a capital letter by mistake...

Don't they have software for that?
