Thanks for replies…
I appreciate the pointers for learning key concepts, this is something that I have already run into. I can follow along to a certain extent but then find myself being completely side tracked.
As an example, I was under the impression that it would be fairly easy to build and ‘test’ an app on an android but… get Java sdk, only to find out it has to be 32 and not 64, then the all the steps to get it on the phone. 2 hours later, totally confused it was time to a serious break.
My initial goal is to build a simple language app.
-
display an english word
-
play another language file when clicked
-
display a graphic representing the word.
All simple it seems and I’m wondering if Corona is overkill for this.
I also expected to find pre-built scripts that could be modified and I’m sure there some, but I think that right now, I don’t really understand what it is I’m looking for.
A perfect example of this…
the opening screen of most apps, you have 4 or 5 icons that take you into various area’s of the app… I thought I would find a script that would display a generic screen that I could then modify as opposed to coding it up from scratch.
I’m patient so eventually I’ll get there but if there are pointers to short cuts, I’d appreciate knowing what I’m looking for.
