Chapter 15. Publishing and beyond
In this chapter, we’ll set you off on the road to publishing your finished apps. If you’re ever flagging in your quest for early fame and fortune in the app world, we’ve drafted some support in the form of quotes and profiles of some teen and preteen programmers and app developers. Then, to wrap up, we’ll talk about the future of App Inventor and consider whether there are other app-development tools out there for you.
OK, so you’ve made an app that is going to sweep the nation, or perhaps you just think it’s pretty good and would be fun to share. As an expert app inventor, you already know that you can email the .apk file to your friends or share the file on your website, via Twitter, or on your Facebook account. But what if you want to take things further and share your inspiration with the world? You can upload your app to the Google Play Store for a one-time cost of $25.00.
