Answer 2

Mobile App Development

1. Start with Frontend (UI/UX)

- Learn basic HTML, CSS, JavaScript for foundational UI understanding
- Then dive into Flutter (Dart) or React Native (JavaScript)

Flutter: https://flutter.dev
React Native: https://reactnative.dev

2. Backend Basics

Learn a backend language like Node.js or Firebase for managing data, authentication, and cloud sync. Firebase is especially beginner-friendly and widely used in MVPs.

3. Version Control & Deployment

- Learn Git/GitHub for collaboration.
- Use Android Studio or Xcode to test and deploy your apps to app stores.

Game Development:

1. Pick a Game Engine

- I suggest starting with Unity (C#) ==> https://unity.com

2. Learn Programming Logic

- Game logic is different from apps, you need to work with physics, animations, input handling, etc
- C# for Unity is a must. Start with tutorials on Unity Learn or Brackeys on YouTube.

3. Design & Assets

Use tools like Figma for UI, Blender for 3D, or royalty-free assets from Kenney.nl to get started.

At Impero IT Services, we have built apps for startups and enterprises, from food delivery platforms to AI-based health trackers. For games, we helped an edutainment company launch a trivia game that reached 100k+ downloads in 3 months. The key was using Flutter for the app frontend and Firebase for real-time multiplayer, fast to build and easy to scale.
