2: How Apps Work

Developing an android application involves several processes that


happen in a sequential manner.

After writing the source code files, when developers click the Run
button on the Android studio, plenty of operations and process starts at the
backend. Every operation happening in the background is a crucial step and
are interdependent.

The IDE builds all the application files, make them device compatible
in order to deploy, and assure that the application runs successfully on the
device.

Step 1: Building the APK File

1. Code Compilation

The android application source files are written in either Java(*.java files) or
Kotlin(*.kt files) programming languages.

Syntax of writing the code in these 2 languages are different but their
compilation process is almost the same.

6
Both programming languages generate code that can be compiled to Java
byte-code which is executable on JVM(Java Virtual Machine).

2. Conversion into Dalvik bytecodes

The generated Java class(*.class) file in the previous step is executable on


Java Virtual Machine(JVM) as it contains the standard Oracle JVM Java
byte-codes. However, this code format is not suitable for Android devices
and thus Android has its own unique byte-code format known as Dalvik

7
byte-code.

3. Generating .apk file

Resource files of the android application like images, fonts, XML layouts, etc.
are transformed into a single compiled resource unit by the Android Asset
Packaging Tool(aapt).

The aapt tool is also responsible for creating the [Link] file of an android
application. Further, the compiled resource unit along with the [Link]
file is compressed by the apkbuilder tool and a zip-like file is created that is
termed as Android Package(.apk file).

The generated .apk file contains all necessary data to run the Android
application.

8
4. App Distribution

The .apk file generated in the previous step is a ready-to-use application


package and developers can use this file for the purpose of app distribution.

However, to distribute and publish the application through Google Play


Store, developers need to sign it. Android applications are required to be
digitally signed with a certificate so that they can be installed by the users.

The certificate is self-signed, and the Android uses it to identify the author of
the application. The app developer/author holds the private key of the
certificate and these all details are stored as an additional file in the android
package(.apk file).

9
Oracle Java Development Kit(JDK) provides the jarsigner tool to sign the .jar
files and .apk files. Further, the compressed parts of the signed .apk file are
required to line up on byte-boundaries in such a manner so that Android OS
can read them without uncompressing the file. The byte alignment of files is
assured by running the signed .apk file through the zipalign tool.

Step 2: Deploy the Application

1. Establish the ADB Server

Android Debug Bridge(ADB) deploys an application to Android devices. It is a


command-line tool that acts as an interface and facilitates developers to
communicate with an android device.

10
To start the deployment, the ADB client will first check whether the ADB
server process is already running on the device.

If there isn’t, the server process starts with the ADB command. The ADB
server starts and binds with local TCP port 5037.

All communication and commands are transferred from the ADB server to
ADB clients using port 5037. Further, the server sets up a connection with all
running devices. It scans all the ports and when the server detects an ADB
daemon(adbd: a background process on emulator or device instance), it set
up a connection to that port.

The adbd process that matches on the android device can communicate with
applications, debug them, and collect their log output.

11
2. Transfer .apk file to the Device

The ADB command transfers the .apk file into the local file system of the
target Android device.

The app location in the device file system is defined by its package name.

For example, if the application package is [Link], then its


.apk file will be located in the path /data/app/[Link].

Step 3: Run the Application

1. App launch request

Zygote process is the parent to all Android apps and it launches an


application when a user makes the request to do so.

2. Conversion of the .dex code to native OAT format


When a new application is installed, the Android optimize the app data and
generates a corresponding OAT file. This file is created by the Android OS to
accelerate the application loading time. The process to generate the OAT file
starts with the extraction of [Link] file present inside the .apk file of the

Application.

12
After following all these steps and procedures, the application will finally
start and the initial activity of the app will appear on the device screen.

→ Understanding app stores (Google Play, App Store)

Google Play Store

● Platform: Primarily for Android devices.


● Market Size: As of 2023, Google Play hosts over 3.5 million apps.
● User Demographics: Wider global audience, particularly in developing

3: Introduction to App Design

Application design or app design refers to a process of designing the


interactions of a user with an application and the application interface.
Designing is an integral part of the overall design process. Your design is
responsible for communicating your mission and your product/service to your
users, it is largely responsible for user retention, and user experience and
may decide the fate of an application.

App Design

Application design or app design refers to a process of designing the


interactions of a user with an application and the application interface.

1. UI design: UI design or User Interface design is the process of creating


the visual interfaces for a software application. There are lots of
businesses where a designer will play both parts, but there are also
lots of designers who specialize in UI design. UI designers help users to
navigate an interface by using visual clues.
2. UX design: UX design or User Experience design is the process of
creating the experiences or the interactions that a user has with a
product. The basic principle of UX design is to keep the needs of the
user prior and improve the interaction of the user and the product
keeping this in mind.

15
How to Design an App?

Designing an application involves of a lot of processes, we can bifurcate the


process of application designing into three important steps:

1. User Research
2. Wireframing and Prototyping: The second step of the application
design is Wireframes and Prototypes. But what are these
Wireframes? Wireframes are detailed structural sketches that
illustrate a concept. A wireframe for a digital product is similar to a
blueprint for a house. Wireframe clearly illustrates how the product
functions and the core elements of its design.
3. Visual Designing and testing

Basics of app layout: Buttons, text fields, and images

Creating an app layout involves arranging various user interface (UI)


components to ensure a user-friendly and visually appealing design. Here's a
basic overview of the essential elements like buttons, text fields, and images.

1. Buttons

Buttons are interactive elements that allow users to perform actions like
submitting forms or navigating to different screens.

16
Example in HTML

html

<button>Click Me</button>

2. Text Fields

Text fields are used for user input, like entering text in forms.

Example in HTML

html

<label for="name">Name:</label>

<input type="text" id="name" name="name">

3. Images

Images are used to display visual content.

Example in HTML

html

<img src="[Link]" alt="Description of image">

17
Importance of user-friendly design.

User-friendly design is crucial for creating a positive experience for users,


whether they are interacting with a website, app, or any digital product. Here
are some key reasons why user-friendly design is important:

1. Enhanced User Experience (UX)


2. Increased Accessibility
3. Higher Engagement and Retention
4. Improved Efficiency
5. Competitive Advantage
6. Cost Savings
7. Positive First Impressions

18
4: Getting Started with App Development Tools
Introduction to block-based coding platforms like Thinkable or MIT
App Inventor.

Block-based coding platforms are excellent tools for beginners and


educators to learn programming concepts without getting bogged down by
syntax. Here are two popular platforms:

MIT App Inventor

MIT App Inventor is a web-based, visual programming environment that


allows users to create mobile applications for Android devices.

It uses a block-based interface similar to Scratch, making it accessible for


beginners1.

Users can drag and drop blocks to design their app's functionality and
interface. MIT App Inventor also supports IoT (Internet of Things)
extensions, enabling users to build apps that interact with physical
devices2.

Thinkable

Thinkable is another block-based coding platform designed to introduce


programming concepts to young learners.

It provides a visual programming environment where users can create


interactive stories, games, and animations by connecting blocks that
represent different programming commands2. Thinkable aims to make
learning programming fun and engaging for children.

19
Basic interface walkthrough.

Alright! Let's walk through the basic interfaces of two popular block-based
coding platforms: MIT App Inventor and Scratch (since Thinkable is not
widely recognized, I'll use Scratch for a more common reference). These
platforms are quite similar in terms of how they introduce coding concepts.

MIT App Inventor

Getting Started

1. Sign In:
Go to the MIT App Inventor website and sign in with your
Google account.
2. Create a New Project: Click on "Projects" in the top menu and select
"Start New Project." Give your project a name.

Interface Overview

● Designer View:
This is where you design the user interface of your app.
○ Palette: Contains different UI components like buttons, text
boxes, labels, etc.
○ Viewer: The central area where you drag and drop components
to build your app’s interface.
○ Components: Lists all components currently used in your app.
○ Properties: Allows you to adjust properties (e.g., color, size) of
the selected component.
● Blocks View: This is where you program the behavior of your app.
○ Blocks Palette: Contains all the blocks you can use,
categorized by functions like control, logic, math, etc.
○ Workspace: The area where you drag and connect blocks to
create your app’s logic.

20
○ Backpack: A handy feature to store blocks you might want to
reuse later.

Drag-and-drop coding principles.

Drag-and-drop coding principles form the backbone of block-based


programming platforms. These principles make it easy for users, especially
beginners, to understand coding concepts without dealing with complex
syntax. Here's an overview of the key principles:

1. Visual Blocks

● Intuitive Blocks: Represent programming constructs like loops,


conditions, and functions as visual blocks.
● Color Coding: Different types of blocks (e.g., control, logic,
variables) are color-coded for easy identification.

2. Drag-and-Drop Interface

● User Interaction: Users can drag blocks from a palette and drop
them into a workspace to build their programs.
● No Syntax Errors: This approach eliminates syntax errors, allowing
users to focus on logic and structure.

3. Building Blocks

● Puzzle Piece Design: Blocks are shaped like puzzle pieces to


indicate how they can be combined.
● Snap Together: Blocks snap together when they are compatible,
visually showing the flow of the program.

21
4. Real-Time Feedback

● Immediate Execution: Users can run their programs immediately to


see the results, encouraging experimentation and iterative learning.
● Debugging: Visual indicators help users understand where errors
may have occurred in their logic.

5. Modularity

● Reusable Code: Users can create reusable blocks (functions or


procedures) to keep their code organized and modular.
● Encapsulation: Encapsulate complex logic into simple,
understandable blocks.

6. Event-Driven Programming

● Event Blocks: Many drag-and-drop platforms support event-driven


programming where specific actions (like a button click) trigger blocks
of code.
● Interactive Projects: Makes it easy to create interactive applications
and games.

22
5: Creating a Simple App
Let's walk through the process of building a simple app with a button and a
text field. We'll use HTML, CSS, and a bit of JavaScript to demonstrate this.

Step 1: Set Up Your Project Structure

1. Create a project folder: For example, simple-app.


2. Inside this folder, create:
○ [Link] (your main HTML file)
○ [Link] (your CSS file)
○ [Link] (your JavaScript file)

Step 2: Create the HTML File

Open [Link] and add the following code:

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html lang="en">

<head>

<meta charset="UTF-8">

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">

<title>Simple App</title>

<link rel="stylesheet" href="[Link]">

</head>

<body>

<div class="container">

23
<h1>My Simple App</h1>

<label for="inputText">Enter Text:</label>

<input type="text" id="inputText" name="inputText">

<button id="submitButton">Submit</button>

<p id="outputText"></p>

</div>

<script src="[Link]"></script>

</body>

</html>

Step 3: Create the CSS File

Open [Link] and add the following code to style your app:

body {

font-family: Arial, sans-serif;

display: flex;

justify-content: center;

align-items: center;

height: 100vh;

margin: 0;

24
.container {

text-align: center;

border: 2px solid #4CAF50;

padding: 20px;

border-radius: 10px;

box-shadow: 0 0 10px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);

input[type="text"] {

width: 80%;

padding: 10px;

margin-top: 10px;

margin-bottom: 20px;

border: 1px solid #ccc;

border-radius: 5px;

button {

background-color: #4CAF50;

25
color: white;

padding: 10px 20px;

border: none;

border-radius: 5px;

cursor: pointer;

button:hover {

background-color: #45a049;

p{

font-size: 1.2em;

color: #333;

Step 4: Create the JavaScript File

Open [Link] and add the following code to handle the button click event:

[Link]('submitButton').addEventListener('click',
function() {

26
var inputText = [Link]('inputText').value;

[Link]('outputText').innerText = "You entered: " +


inputText;

});

Viewing Your App

● Open your browser and drag the [Link] file into the browser
window, or right-click the file and select "Open with" followed by your
browser name.

27

33
7: Interactivity and Logic
Introduction to event-driven programming

Event-driven programming is a paradigm where the flow of the program is


determined by events—such as user actions (like clicks or key presses),
sensor outputs, or messages from other programs. It's widely used in
designing interactive applications, especially in GUIs (Graphical User
Interfaces) and real-time systems. Here's a basic introduction:

Key Concepts in Event-Driven Programming

1. Events:
○ These are actions or occurrences that happen during the
execution of a program and are handled by the program.
○ Examples include mouse clicks, key presses, sensor signals,
and messages.
2. Event Handlers:
○ Functions or methods that get called in response to specific
events.
○ For example, a function that gets executed when a button is
clicked.
3. Event Loop:
○ A programming construct that waits for and dispatches events
or messages in a program.
○ It continuously checks for events and processes them, making
the program responsive.

34
Using conditional logic (if-else statements) in apps.

Conditional logic, through the use of if-else statements, allows your app to
make decisions and execute different code based on certain conditions.
Let's break down how to use if-else statements with a practical example.

Basic Syntax of if-else

In JavaScript, the basic syntax for an if-else statement is:

javascript

if (condition) {

// code to execute if condition is true

} else {

// code to execute if condition is false

35
8: Working with Data
Introduction to data storage in apps.

Data storage is a crucial aspect of any application, enabling apps to save,


retrieve, and manage data. There are various methods for data storage,
each suited to different types of data and use cases. Let's explore some
common data storage options in app development:

1. Local Storage

● Purpose: Stores data on the user's device.


● Usage: Suitable for small amounts of data that need to persist
between sessions.
● Examples:
○ Web Apps: HTML5 Local Storage and Session Storage.
○ Mobile Apps: SharedPreferences (Android) and UserDefaults
(iOS).

2. SQLite Database

● Purpose: A lightweight, file-based database.


● Usage: Suitable for storing structured data and handling complex
queries.
● Examples: Often used in mobile apps (Android and iOS).

3. Cloud Storage

● Purpose: Stores data on remote servers accessed via the internet.


● Usage: Suitable for large amounts of data, real-time data access, and
sharing data across devices.
● Examples: Firebase Firestore, Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage.

36
4. Files

● Purpose: Store data in files on the device or server.


● Usage: Suitable for large, unstructured data like images, videos, and
documents.
● Examples: Internal storage (Android), File system (iOS), [Link] for
server-side file handling.

→ Using variables to store user input

Storing user input in variables is a fundamental aspect of programming,


allowing you to manage and manipulate data dynamically based on user
interactions. Here's how you can do it with a practical example:

Example: Storing User Input in a Variable

Let's create a simple web application where a user can input their name,
and upon clicking a button, the app will display a greeting using their name.

Step 1: HTML Structure

Create an [Link] file with an input field and a button:

37
Step 2: CSS Styling

Create a [Link] file to style your app:

38
Step 3: JavaScript Logic

Create a [Link] file to handle the form submission and store the user
input in a variable:

39
9: Testing and Publishing Apps

How to Test Apps on Different Devices

Testing your app on different devices ensures compatibility, performance,


and a consistent user experience across various platforms and screen
sizes.

1. Emulators and Simulators

● Emulators: Software that mimics the hardware and software of


different devices (e.g., Android Emulator, iOS Simulator).
● Simulators: Specifically mimic the software environment but might
not replicate the exact hardware characteristics.

2. Physical Devices

● Importance: Testing on actual devices gives the most accurate


results.
● Device Diversity: Test on a range of devices with different screen
sizes, resolutions, OS versions, and manufacturers.
● Cloud-Based Testing: Platforms like BrowserStack, AWS Device
Farm, and Firebase Test Lab provide access to a wide range of real
devices in the cloud.

3. Cross-Browser Testing

● Purpose: Ensures web apps perform well across different browsers


(e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge).
● Tools: Use tools like BrowserStack, Sauce Labs, or manual testing to
check compatibility.

40
4. Responsive Design Testing

● CSS Media Queries: Ensure your design adapts to various screen


sizes.
● Tools: Use the browser's developer tools to test responsiveness by
simulating different device screen sizes.

5. Automated Testing

● Frameworks: Use testing frameworks like Appium (for mobile apps)


or Selenium (for web apps) to automate testing across multiple
devices and browsers.

Fixing Bugs and Improving App Performance

Identifying and fixing bugs and optimizing performance are critical for
maintaining a smooth user experience.

1. Bug Tracking

● Tools: Use bug tracking tools like JIRA, Bugzilla, or Trello to log,
track, and manage bugs.
