web design software video
translator: joseph genireviewer: thu-huong ha i've always had a fascinationfor computers and technology, and i made a few apps for the iphone,ipod touch, and ipad. i'd like to share a couple with you today. my first app was a uniquefortune teller called "earth fortune" that would displaydifferent colors of earth depending on what your fortune was. my favorite and most successful app is "bustin jieber," which is --
(laughter) which is a justin bieber whack-a-mole. i created it becausea lot of people at school disliked justin bieber a little bit, so i decided to make the app. so i went to work programming it, and i released itjust before the holidays in 2010. a lot of people ask me,how did i make these? a lot of times it's becausethe person who asked the question
wants to make an app also. a lot of kids these dayslike to play games, but now they want to make them,and it's difficult, because not many kids know where to goto find out how to make a program. i mean, for soccer,you could go to a soccer team. for violin, you could getlessons for a violin. but what if you want to make an app? and the kid's parents might have donesome of these things when they were young, but not many parents have written apps.
where do you go to find outhow to make an app? well, this is how i approached it,this is what i did. first of all, i've been programmingin multiple other programming languages to get the basics down, such as python, c, java, etc. and then apple released the iphone, and with it, the iphonesoftware development kit, and the software development kitis a suite of tools for creating and programmingan iphone app.
this opened up a whole new worldof possibilities for me, and after playing with the softwaredevelopment kit a little bit, i made a couple of apps,i made some test apps. one of them happened to be"earth fortune," and i was ready to put"earth fortune" on the app store, and so i persuaded my parentsto pay the 99 dollar fee to be able to put my appson the app store. they agreed, and now i haveapps on the app store. i've gotten a lot of interestand encouragement
from my family, friends, teachersand even people at the apple store, and that's been a huge help to me. i've gotten a lotof inspiration from steve jobs, and i've started an app club at school, and a teacher at my schoolis kindly sponsoring my app club. any student at my school can comeand learn how to design an app. this is so i can sharemy experiences with others. there's these programscalled the ipad pilot program, and some districts have them.
i'm fortunate enough to be part of one. a big challenge is,how should the ipads be used, and what apps should we put on the ipads? so we're getting feedbackfrom teachers at the school to see what kind of apps they'd like. when we design the app and we sell it, it will be free to local districts;and other districts that we sell to -- all the money from that will gointo the local ed foundations. these days, students usually knowa little bit more than teachers
with the technology. so -- sorry. so this is a resource to teachers, and educators should recognizethis resource and make good use of it. i'd like to finish up by sayingwhat i'd like to do in the future. first of all, i'd like to createmore apps, more games. i'm working with a third partycompany to make an app. i'd like to get into androidprogramming and development,
and i'd like to continue my app club, and find other ways for studentsto share knowledge with others. thank you. (applause)
