This is especially true if you’re trying to build a professional-looking app from scratch in a coding language you’re just learning.
Building an effective user interface is no simple task – Even if you have a clear vision of what you want your app to look like (and there’s no guarantee it’s what your users want), being able to successfully create that look from a blank canvas can be overwhelming. In the latter case, it can also get very expensive very quickly. Building an app takes time – Once you’ve settled on a framework for your app, you still need to design, build, test, iterate, build, test… If you’re brand new to programming or choosing to outsource your app development, these stages can be painfully slow. You don’t know what you don’t know – Just getting your development environment set up properly on your computer takes a level of computer expertise that most lack. Do you need a database? Backend logic? Public API services? Yes, yes, yes.
Do you want to build a web app? There are languages for that. Not only that, but your language choice also depends on your deployment method.
There are so many languages – Which do you start with? Oh, and every coder has a different answer based on their experience and personal history. Not only is coding a skill that takes years to become good at (does anyone ever really “master” coding?), it’s extremely difficult to get started because: Since the dawn of time (ok, not quite), one of the greatest barriers to entry for becoming a programmer has been learning to code.
