There are various books out there aimed at web designers and developers who really want to learn and understand how to build websites and mobile apps that take advantage of the functionality available in today’s generation of smart devices.

However, in order to make the most out of these books, you should have good knowledge of coding; HTML, JavaScript and CSS,  as these books won’t be spending any time to cover the basics of those topics.

However, nowadays there is not much need of such books. What do I mean?

Some of you might have heard about web builders whereby anyone can get to build their own websites without knowing how to code!

Business owners who try DIY (Do It Yourself) website creation using web builders have found it to be useful, especially because creating a website is no longer the difficult and time consuming process it used to be fifteen years ago. Web builders make this tedious process just a piece of cake, and even a twelve year old can do it effortlessly. Either you have heard about the WYSIWYG “what you see is what you get” web builders, or you cannot believe what you are reading. These website creating software do not require any coding, since everything happens through an interface and the whole process is very similar to image editing and takes literally minutes.

What about App Builders?

This is where things get interesting for individuals wanting to build apps for their websites. Hiring a mobile app developer is very expensive, and mobile apps do take a long time to be fully built. However Web2App (link opens in a new tab) does a great work in building apps by simply converting websites into applications; Android, iOS, Amazon, Blackberry or Windows. This is a first time and they do charge an affordable amount given the current cost of building mobile apps. You simply need to make a purchase and you get access to their premium app builder. You can easily convert your website into an app in five minutes, and you can also start charging clients for it too.
