Building two separate native apps — one for Android, one for iPhone — doubles the work for the same idea. Web-based mobile frameworks solve that problem by letting a single codebase run on both platforms, and Cordova remains one of the most widely used tools for doing it. This training course from the Arab British Fellowship Training Academy takes participants through that entire path, turning existing web development knowledge into the ability to ship real, working mobile apps.

Beyond the fundamentals, the course is anchored in practical builds: a news app connected to WordPress, a to-do list, a weather app, a restaurant app, and a social recipe-sharing app with camera integration. Along the way, participants also work with the Materialize and Framework7 frameworks, connect apps to databases, and use Cordova together with Ionic 4 — everything needed to graduate as a confident, professional mobile app developer.

Who Should Attend?

• Individuals with basic programming knowledge who want to move into mobile app development.
• Web developers looking to extend their skills to mobile.
• Programming and media graduates.
• Anyone looking to enhance their skills in this field.
