Chapter 2. Getting Started with LiveCode Mobile

Creating stacks that do something that you will find useful or that may become a mobile app that you can sell, is a very gratifying process. Minute by minute, you can be making progress, and instantly see improvements that you have made. Unfortunately, there is a lot of less gratifying work to be done before and after you have made your masterpiece. This chapter will take you through the "before" part.
LiveCode makes mobile apps by taking the stack you have made, along with any supporting files you have added, and compiles the application file using the developer kit that you will download from the mobile OS provider — Google for Android and Apple for iOS.
