The hardest part is coming up with the idea. Given the success to failure ratio, don’t expect to make a quick buck building an app. Majority of developers barely break even. I’m in that failures bucket. Luckily, my primary objective is self-education. If the result of it interest/entertains others, great! Regardless, I’ve learned from the experience.
For this tutorial, I’ve decided to make a DZone RSS app. This tutorial is a 7-part series:
- The Idea
- Putting Pen to Paper
- Interacting with web sites
- Parsing RSS XML
- Persisting RSS content
- Storyboarding
- In-App web browsing
If you never visited DZone, I highly recommend it. It’s full of great content for software developers and architects. I visit it on a daily basis.
