This explanation is high-level and non-technical. It is meant to give you a broad understanding of how buzztouch works and the steps necessary to create and run an iPhone or Android app using buzztouch.
Create an application by entering a name for the app in your control panel. The new app will show in your list of apps. Clicking the app's name shows the menus, screens, properties, and settings for that app.
The buzztouch control panel creates an archived (zipped) download containing your applications source-code and project files. After you download the archived folder, open the included project using Xcode (iOS) or Eclipse (Android). See the example videos in your control panel for help.
Installing the appropriate SDK on your machine can get tricky but thousands of folks have figured it out, you can too! The iOS SDK is for iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad apps. The Android SDK is for, you guessed it, Android apps.
Compiling the source-code with Xcode or Eclipse creates the mobile app that runs on a simulator or a device. For iOS, this is a binary file with a .app extension. For Android, this is a binary file with a .apk exstension.
The app may need internet access, it depends on the configuration. Features that require an internet connection attempt to cache data for offline use.
Create menus and screens to organize the app's navigational structure, content and app features. Menu items can lead to other menus and screens allowing an unlimited amount of navigational depth. Example: Locations > California > Central Valley
App owners are encouraged to explore lots and lots of mobile application distribution options. Apple's App Store and Google's Android Market are the most popular and each maintains a unique set of guidelines, rules, and processes associated with getting an app "listed." buzztouch does not submit apps to app stores or markets. The applications you create are yours to keep and you decide what distribution method is best.
