Hi there. So I have a great idea, that I know would absolutely take off. Problem is, I have no experiance writing script or even any idea where to begin. Any suggestions of what to do? It could be considered an app I guess, not for any hand held device, but its also an idea that could be sold to another already developed company to buy and host it, that's the most likely way it would be run, and the smartest. any suggestions?
You must study html and then you can use tagcgi to wirte scripts by pure html. btw. You should master sql....
You should start learning html, dhtml , javascript, j query. if u master in this than learn any server side scripting langyage asp.net or php. but u should start learning from html.
If you are not form programming background, it will be difficult for you to learn and do it yourself (not saying impossible). Learning basics is one thing but to gain experience enough to make your own application is entirely different version. It takes time, a lot of time. By that time, it might be too late for your idea or you may be distracted by other things. All the guys before me are presenting the fact in very easy way. Learn html, sql, javascript, php. That's it. Easier said than done. So, I suggest you to find someone who can be trusted and make him build what you want.
There is something u must really understand is different between programming language and scripting language.. and for the case to create something like a site it's called scripting language.. and like others say before, you can follow this way. learn html-javascript-htmlDOM-Ajax, this all is a client side scripting.. after you master those you can choose and take a look at server side like PHP or ASP and finally SQL.. this is my version..
Why dont you post a request on freelancers or odesk. A lot of programmers on there that could try and program this for you. Some are expensive and some not so expensive, but just make sure to read the reviews for the people that do offer there services to you
First you will need to do an evaluation of what platform to develop this on. Is it a web app? Mobile app? Desktop app? Look into your options and decide which technology makes most sense. Ideally, if you have no idea where to start you should get the help of a developer. This will be very hard without that sort of assistance.
Ehh... yeah sure is some weird posts on here haha But yeah, you're either going to want to learn how to do the work yourself, or have someone do it for you. If it's some type of idea for a website, you'll want to find a company(Web Host) to host your website and get your domain name from. Then from there you can make your website on their servers or have someone else do it, etc. HTML is nothing and it's the basics. It's basically just the content and instructions for Web Browsers. So like when Firefox pulls up a webpage it reads the HTML and displays the content and webpage how it's instructed. Then the CSS coding will deal with all the colors and alignment and yada yada But then there's the PHP/ASP which are considered server side scripting languages. They are coding that's ran in your scripts against the server to do whatever you want. Like check a database to make sure a logins correct or anything
The world is full of people who have great ideas and don't have the knowledge to implement them. You have 3 options: 1) Forget it. 2) Learn enough that you can implement it. 3) Pay someone else to implement it. Selling an idea is not on the menu - no one pays for ideas unless you've already made the idea work, and are showing a profit. See NIH syndrome.
