Learning Principles

We love sharing our expertise with developers so that they can make a difference through mobile apps.It’s about learning from the best to create great apps that improve our lives.And as we learn from one another, the ecosystem grows steadily.

Learn with people who do

Imparting of knowledge is important but sharing of experience is even enriching. The best way to learn is to learn from people who know what they are doing.

Seek out primary sources

One great way of learning is by walking through code samples from Apple and Google. Because it’s all written by people just like you and me, there is so much we can learn from seeing what others have done before.

Catch the culture, not just the code

The best developers around the world catch the culture and the thinking behind each ecosystem. They learn to do the best work within the given framework -- no code stands alone as an island.
