II. Group Assignment

MIT App Inventor 2

In my individual assignment I give a tour through the MIT App Inventor. It is easy to use and gave me a quick first success of building an Android App.
But at the moment there is no option to build apps for iPhones or iPads, so that’s an Android only application development environment.

Processing

Processing is an application development environment, which look and feel is like the ArduinoIDE.

Even the settings window reminds of the one, from the ArduinoIDE

For a quick test, I opened the button example

And with a click on the play button

the script starts

With a click within the square or the circle, the colors change

It is also possible to build Android Apps with processing to connect and control own build devices with. e.G. Bluetooth.

comments

There is a really wide range of platforms and environments to build own user interfaces.
E.g. C, C++, Java, Python, node_RED and much much more…

I’m personally not very interested to build own UI’s so I’m absolutely happy with the one I made for my network :)
