Getting App into Google Play Overview

What you'll learn

Welcome to part 4 of our Mobile development training. This group of 4 titles is deliberately split into stand alone topics that mesh together into one fun and easily digestible course. We can't promise you will know every single thing in mobile development in 4 hours but we can definitely commit to you that you will know hot to configure, setup, build and publish your first application.

Our first course focus is an opener course for Adobe AIR. Adobe AIR is a platform that enables developers to build out there applications and get published and working in 1000's of devices from desktops, TVs, smart touchable devices and even mobile phones. In our first title we give you a brief overview of the platforms capabilities and show you how to publish an application that will end up being a Mac,PC, iOS, iPhone, iPad and even Android mobile application.

Our second course lays the foundations for the third where we learn the basic functionalists we will need for any mobile application such as getting it to look good on multiple devices sizes, understanding device capabilities and limitations, understanding how permissions on mobile devices work and how to get your application to react to users behaviors in our first case we see how to listen in and modify our application depending on the current orientation of the device.

Our third course is the heart of our mobile development starter courses where we see step by step how to build a full and complete application based on what we learnt in course 2. By the end of section two you will have a complete Ruler application that reacts to the users device orientation and that will look amazing on any mobile Adobe AIR friendly device.

Leading us to our current (4th title) where we take the application we completed building in section 3 and get it uploaded onto the Google Play market place.
