Looking for a Mentor

I recently volunteered to build an app for our local town economic development council......easy right? Wrong ! I’m a fairly smart guy but I could really use some help with this project. Things like can we fix some things my Yellow Pages URL won’t do through the app? How do I package, get a keystore certificate? Things like that ! If somebody out there is willing to be a sounding board I would really appreciate the help. Thanks Randy

Two real good resources. I'm primarily an iOS-only guy, and after reading GoNorthWest's guides, I was able to compile an Android app fairly easily.

I am here to help with not doing the stupid mistakes like putting an android icon on a blackberry app, and finding out that java is not the same as javascript. Seriously any beginners questions I am happy to help with

Marko, your mistakes only make us stronger. They may cause you to lose hair or have someone drop a mellon on your head, but we need the comic relief. Fred

Excellent advice about watching Buzztouch YouTube, just remember that some of the info on some of the videos is dated and written info is usually more up to date. But just learning the process was made easier by watching the videos. Fred
