I've been set the task of creating an app; and buzztouch looks to be the easiest and most professionasl way of doing so. The app is based on a sixth form college. I have no programming experience, whatsoever... and was wondering if you felt the following would be possible to make: 1. A login section, with different content displayed after login for different members (ex: own personal college lesson timetable for each member) 2. Entering a twitter feed onto a page. 3. Some sort of admin system, where they can change the content displayed on a page (ex: different grades for pieces of work on a 'marked work' page) Thank you for your help, and any other advice/suggestions would be great!

There might be better ways but that's how I would do it. Hope it makes sense.

Also, do you think it's beneficial for me to go through all the tutorials, or just start on xcode and use multiple resources on the internet to increase my understanding? Thanks for your reply also Farcat :) Jack.

What you describe as your goal will certainly take some custom coding, all of it cannot be done with the existing Buzz plugins. This forum is a great place to get the info you need to do the coding, but a simple yes is definitely misrepresenting the task. It can be done with Buzz. It will be easier to do with Buzz. It cannot be done without some coding. Go for it. I started from the same shoes you are in. Do the tutorials. Read the FAQs by GoNorthwest and MySkilla. Be patient, you can do it.
