    Have some ideas I want to integrate into an app and see if it provides value to me. What level of coding is need / language? Also, is there a program that can shortcut the creation? A software that I can build the app from and add ui without an advanced level of coding? my objective is to be able to manifest ideas into an app easily and beta test it myself to see if it adds value.

    Question is too broad. Language depends on platform.
    Windows favours C++ and C#, macOS -> Objective C, iOS -> Objective C and Swift, Android -> Java (/ Kotlin), Dart.

    Web apps work on everything (JavaScript).
    Cross platform: React Native (JavaScript), Flutter (Dart).

    If you mean designing the GUI, then yes; there are visual aids for all of these platforms.

    iOS has quite a lot of apps that teach the most basic concepts of programming. For everything else, you'll just have to learn the platform of your choice and the language(s) of that platform.

    Yes, you could pay someone to rewrite your app for Windows, but the work required is going to make this expensive, especially if you need a cross platform GUI.

    I don't know much about this app creation process. But I am highly interested and want to create an app for my brand. Basically, I want to create a mobile tracking app. Do you have any idea about it? Please let me know. Thank you!

    The author did not specify what level of application he wants to create, at least briefly describe, maybe your application can be written in BASIC, or maybe you can’t do without a professional team.

    You can use React Native or Flutter. React Native is easier than Flutter (Dart) in my experience, but making an app itself isn't that easy. It takes a lot of technical knowledge. For React Native you need to master JavaScript/Typescript and and for Flutter you need to master Dart. It can take quiet a lot of time if you are new to programming.

    ive made some plugins with prompts using cursor https://www.cursor.com/ ive also heard good things about bolt as well. https://bolt.new/ I know people are afraid of AI but the cursor agents are a good way to prompt an idea and have a working basic plugin along the way. Also depending on your learning style you can learn how to code this way.

    If there's something that I learned from 5 years of being a web dev, the words 'easy' and 'coding' do not go hand in hand.

    could be why I'm not a programmer anymore :rofl:

    But in all seriousness, get a video tutorial of making something pretty similar to what you have in mind and copy it to the note, best way to get results. Otherwise, pick a language and learn it from the ground up, something I never took the time to do.

    Javascript is the most widely used language, and it's a fking nightmare, but if you're inclined then get to it
