Most mobile apps today are built using traditional desktop tools. These tools are complex, need to be downloaded, installed, frameworks configured, and lack real-time collaboration. To build mobile apps fast, to stay ahead, and innovate in the enterprise, developers need new tools to create mobile apps. The new tools are running entirely in the cloud, offer real time collaboration, sharing, and connections to cloud APIs. In this live coding session attendees will learn about Appery.io platform, and how to build a mobile app connected cloud APIs. Creating re-usable API plug-ins will be shown as well. Attendees will be able to test the app on their phones as its being built.
