Review Quotes

I've had an idea for a business for a long time but never had a clue where to start (I'm not exactly technically minded). I'd heard of no code but even found that overwhelming. After seeing this on Amazon, I thought I'd take a chance. What I really like about it is that it's really aimed at people like me; someone with an idea but absolutely no clue on what goes into making an app. The author takes each stage step-by-step and covers all of the things that an amateur needs to know. I also really like the fact that the author shares her own experiences. - Amazon 5*
