    Hi there: last couple of month I just thought, that I should know iOS, android / smart device apps development.... I request you guys are expert on that and help me step by steps, for example. Steps(i) Create the development environment.. * ?? IDE. * ?? simulator. * ?? SDK.. * Write my first program etc. Just I am a beginner... I hope your suggestion help me to see sunshine.......Thanks once again. :)

      Just pick one platform and learn that first. They are all totally different. Not sure what you mean by beginner. Beginner software developer or beginner mobile device developer? If you know Java, go Android If you know Objective C, go iOS. If you know .NET, go Windows Mobile. If you don't know any of the languages, learn the basics first. Most mobile device documentation assume you have an understanding of the language. Pick one, learn it and then move to another platform. All the developer centres have good programming guides.

            The quick start guide http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html#quickstart Download eclipse. http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/ to get android for eclipse you will need to get the android sdk starter package from here http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html unpack the sdk on your machine. by default it is : android-sdk-. Make sure you keep note of the location, you'll have to point to it later. It's a good idea, especially for debugging, to add this to your system path. on linux : export PATH=${PATH}:/tools on windows: On Windows, right-click on My Computer, and select Properties. Under the Advanced tab, hit the Environment Variables button, and in the dialog that comes up, double-click on Path (under System Variables). Add the full path to the tools/ directory to the path. The next step is to get the android development tools (adt) for eclipse. Open eclipse and select the help->install new software. When the box pops up select "Available Software" The available software sites box will pop up. You want to select Install/Update from the menu on the left, and then click add. give it some name and put this url in: https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/ If this has an error, you can change the system settings to force use of https, or you can change the site url to : http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/ Close necessary windows to get back to the Available Software dialogue. There is a drop down menu at the top of this box. You should be able to select your named site and it will populate the download window. Select all and continue the update, then restart eclipse Now we need to point eclipse to the SDK directory and set up the preferences. Window-> Preferences Select android from the left window. In the upper box on the right side, select browse and navigate to your sdk directory. Click apply Setting up the SDK can be done from the directory , or the eclipse ide. In eclipse you can select window->android sdk manager. - or - In your android sdk directory, SDK Readme.txt will explain how to set up the sdk, launch the sdk and avd manager tools, etc. You can navigate to the sdk/tools directory and just type android. There are examples in your sdk directory, plenty on the web, etc. HOpe that helps.

            If it moves, compile it

              If you want to learn Android here are a few links: Android Developers Guide[^] Eclipse is the most common IDE[] but I would recommend getting started with the Motodev Studio IDE[^]. Either way, download the IDE and get started because it can take a long time to download all the SDK's. You install the SDK's using the Android SDK Manager. If you install Motodev IDE you can find the manager in the menu bar under the Windows menu. You don't need an actual device to start learning. You can use simulators called AVD's, Android Virtual Devices. Google recently introduced Fragments, Action bars and other stuff that has made things a bit more complex so keep it simple to start with. It's a challenging but rewarding space so have fun!
