Yesterday, I got the invitation to try the pre-release of App Inventor for Android. App Inventor is a tool which allows users without any programming skills to create applications for Android platform. Instead of writing the code, one has to visually design the user interface and create blocks to control the behavior of the application.
I will try it out and create something using the App Inventor. Wait for my next post for the review or may be a tutorial.
