Who this book is for
This course targets anyone who wants to be an app developer. This is a complete course, just like my Complete Web, iOS, and Apple Watch courses. It will teach you how to make money from your apps as well as how to code. For anyone who wants to learn to code, Java is a fantastic language to learn from. For anyone who wants to understand how computers work, learning to code is so much more than being able to make apps; knowing how computers work is your key to a hugely powerful world.
