Intro Course

The first module of the Appfarm Fundamentals learning path, helping you get started with Appfarm Create.

Welcome to the Appfarm Fundamentals Intro Course!

This is an interactive, self-paced course to help you learn how to build apps in Appfarm Create. The course includes a combination of instructional videos and assignments for you to complete in your own solution inside Appfarm Create.

The purpose of this course is to learn the key principles, navigation, and visual development inside Appfarm Create - without using Appfarm AI.

It is also possible to view the videos without access to Appfarm Create (in that case, skip step 1).

The Apps you create through these sessions and assignments can be downloaded from our Farmers Market. We recommend only doing so after the sessions and assigments, to validate your work, or if you are stuck and need help. To download the Apps: Go to menu Apps -> New App -> Browse all apps, locate the Appfarm Developer Training apps, and click Get App.

Even though we do not recommend using Appfarm AI in this intro course, you should get familiar with it and use the Ask mode to get help explaining concepts as needed.

Step 4: Take the quiz

Finally, there is a multiple-choice quiz where you can test your knowledge of Appfarm Create.
