Set Your Goals

For setting your goals, you don't require a complex coding, designing, or algorithm just paper and pen will get the job done. Take your paper and pen out and define what you want to accomplish. In the app development, defining or setting your goals is very significant as it will lay down the foundation of your application. For this, you need to ask and answer a few questions like:

• What do you want your application to do?

• How is it going to appeal to the audience? 

• What solution will it provide?

• How will it help its users?

• How will you market your application?

These questions will help you determine in which direction you want your application to go and how it will solve a problem you are targeting. If you don't have clearly defined goals, then your business will not survive. So, create a clear picture of what you want to develop.

Visual Representation of Your Ideas 

Now that you have defined your goals, the next step is to sketch your ideas on a piece of paper. You answered all the questions, right? Now create a sketch of your ideas about how your application will look like. Change your clearly defined ideas into the visual representation of your thoughts. Decide how you will earn from your applications? Are you offering ads to generate money, or your app will be paid? If this is something you are opting for, then be sure you have everything sketched down. 

Research

Turn on your computer and start researching about your app. The chances are that the idea you have decided on has already been implemented by someone else. It happens a lot of time that the most unique idea you have come up with is already rocking the market. What you need to do is to research the competition of your app idea. This way, you can examine your competition and can come up with an even better idea. Read the reviews of users on the application as it will help you improve the design and layout of your application. If you want to bring some changes, then modify and adjust your idea on the paper again. 

Wireframe

The wireframe is a storyboard that will help you sketch and design your idea to them a little more clarity. It is a very important step, as it will be the foundation of your application. There are hundreds of websites that allow you to bring your sketches to digital life with some working functionality. Moreover, it will help you find if the design you are going is user-friendly or not. 

Define and Build the Back End of Your Application 

Since you are already in your development phase and you have a storyboard how you want your application to function now, it is time to examine your functionalities. By using your wireframe, you need to define your data diagrams, popular api, and servers. To make your work much easier, some app builders provide you the tools to do this easily. No matter what method you choose to develop your app, be sure, you have clear diagrams that will direct you to work on your project. Once you have everything clear, it is time to start building the back end of your application. 

Design the UI

The last step in the developing phase is to create the User Interface of your app. It is probably the most important part of your application as it will attract people and will determine how user-friendly your application is. Therefore, you need to design the UI of the application in a way that it will be easy to use and looks appealing as well.
