Corona SDK for business app?

Hi guys.

As you suppose I am a newbie.

I would like to know if you think Corona SDK is a good choice to develop enterprise business oriented apps.

If you do, It would be very appreciated if you could give me some resources, tutorials or courses for learning how to build business apps using Corona SDK.

If you dont, (in your opinion) what’s the best alternative for building cross system business apps ?

thank you for your input and enjoy the debate.

I’m developing a business app right now and Corona is good – much better than some that I’ve used.  But I recommend you check out this guide:

http://masteringcoronasdk.com/business-apps-using-corona-sdk-2/

Best $50 I spent.  :wink:

I’m doing business apps and games, really good for both. The native objects are a bit of a pain to work with sometimes.

Ditto on masteringcoronasdk tutorial set. Definitely worth all that and more. 

Thank you for your answer davepmoll,

I was taking a look at the tutorial. It looks really good. The thing is that I didn’t see the following topics that are really importants:

  • Invoke and use rest services

  • Single sign on (over facebook, twitter or whatever)

Do you know if these issues are included in the course?

Thank you for your feedback.

No.  The tutorial does not cover anything more than what is listed on the site.  

I don’t cover social services at all, but the first series of videos walks through grabbing data from an external server using network.request() calls. And at the end of that series I throw in an “extra” that grabs data via the Weather Underground API – so those fit my definition of REST, anyway. :slight_smile:
