About this title

Synopsis

How do apps help us complete tasks, listen to music, play games, or find information? Like other computer programs, they use instructions known as code.

Learn how to design, program, test, and publish your own app. Once you've figured out the basics of app creation, use the link in this book to go online and try out your new skills! Self-directed projects and activities help kids learn the basics of coding.

What's an algorithm? How do you fix bugs? What is an app? How do you program a computer game? The Kids Get Coding series leads students through the basics of computer programming using real-world examples and practical activities.
