On Tuesday 29 and Wednesday 30 September 2015, the Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST) Training Centre and the Luxembourg School for Commerce will be organising two training sessions for those with varying technical skills who wish to make a mobile app idea a reality.

The first workshop day, on Tuesday 29, will be comprised of an eight-hour session designed for those who do not have a technical background and instead wish to focus on more theoretical aspects of creating an app. The training will therefore offer participants an understanding, through the creation of a paper prototype, of the complexity in terms of motion, mobility, navigation and mobile ergonomics in the design of an iPhone, iPad or Android application.

By the end of the day, participants will have gaine a better understanding of the mobile market, the development environment, various forms of mobile structure and architecture, paper prototypes and mobile POP (Prototyping On Paper) tool presentations.

For the second workshop, on Wednesday 30, some programming skills on the part of participants would be advantageous, as the eight-hour session will present the various technologies used to create iOS apps, including Swift and Cocoa Touch, before developing an application tested with a simulator. For the labs, programming experience will be required but participants could also choose to follow the key concepts of the presentations without the labs.

The aim of the day will be for those involved to gain a better handle on understanding the workflow creation and delivery of an App, grasping Apple tools in order to create an iPhone app and discovering the Swift language and storyboard.
