App Development Starter

Course Overview:

App Development Starter introduces young learners to the exciting world of mobile app design through visual programming and user interface creation. Using Code.org’s App Lab, students will build practical, interactive apps while developing problem-solving and coding skills.

Learners explore:

• User interface (UI) design: buttons, screens, inputs
• Core programming concepts: events, variables, conditionals, functions
• Multi-screen navigation and data handling
• Logical thinking through real-use mini apps like to-do lists, quizzes, and calculators

Each lesson is project-based, guiding students to build a functioning app they can test and share. No prior experience is needed — just curiosity and creativity!

Key platform used:

• Code.org App Lab

By the end of the course, students will:

• Understand the basics of mobile app development
• Create and customize multi-screen apps
• Implement coding logic with drag-and-drop and text-based blocks
• Present their final app project with confidence

A perfect launchpad for young developers interested in app creation, UI/UX design, and technology innovation!
