The route

  1. 1
    3–6 months

    Pick one platform

    Swift for iOS or Kotlin for Android. Splitting your attention early slows you badly.

  2. 2
    3–6 months

    Ship something to a store

    The review process, signing and release management are half the job and cannot be faked.

  3. 3
    3–6 months

    Learn the platform conventions

    Navigation, lifecycle and accessibility. Apps that fight the platform get rejected and uninstalled.

  4. 4
    6–12 months

    Build a portfolio of two or three real apps

    Live in a store, with real users, beats twelve tutorials.
