Course Description

Create cross-platform desktop applications from scratch and start selling them in the Mac App Store and Windows App Store

Last course update: March 25th 2019

Are you looking to build real-world Desktop cross-platform applications? Maybe you want to create a new side-project Desktop app which can run on Windows, Mac, and Linux to get some extra income or you want to get more clients by being able to publish their app to the three primary operating systems.
Either way, you're in the right place.

I’ve created this course around a single goal: Turning you into a professional Cross-platform developer capable of developing and deploying real-world production desktop applications for Windows, Mac, and Linux.

Multi-platform is becoming more and more popular. Coding an application once and having it run everywhere will allow you to implement new apps for you or your clients quickly.
Cross-platform means creating maintainable apps, not worrying about each operating system needs.

Get better job opportunities by offering cross-platform desktop app development.

This course is entirely project-based. From the very beginning, you'll be hands-on programming from a simple “Hello World” app to a complete from start to finish “Workout Timer” application.

There's no copying-and-pasting here.

This course is about writing code and building projects.
You will be programming a complete Workout Timer cross-platform application ready to submit to the Mac App Store and Microsoft Windows App Store.

During all the chapters you'll learn:

  1. Why using Electron

  2. Setting up all the environment

  3. Creating your first application

  4. Electron API

  5. Using third party libraries

  6. Custom fonts

  7. Building a complete application (you will create a Workout Timer application from 0 to complete)

  8. Multi-platform app menus

  9. Playing audio

  10. Multi-platform Desktop notifications

  11. Keyboard shortcuts

  12. Managing application state

  13. Application debugging

  14. Storing user data

  15. Cross platform accessibility

  16. Application building on Windows

  17. Application building on Mac

  18. Application building on Linux

  19. Windows app signing

  20. Mac app signing

  21. Microsoft App Store distribution

  22. Mac App Store distribution

  23. And much more!

Up-to-date. In-depth.

I guarantee this is the most up-to-date and engaging Cross-platform course available, and it comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee.
While other tutorials or course might teach you individual parts, this course will show you how to go from 0 to selling your cross-platform application without copy-pasting code but coding everything by yourself.

Access to fast support and a community of like-minded students.

I offer quick and friendly support. You won't have to sit around hoping someone will actually reply. I answer every single question that students post in a timely manner.

Don't take my word for it. It's one of the things students like Filip and Nicole love most about my courses.

This course will not remain this price forever! It's time to take action!

Click the "Buy Now" button, top right, now. Every hour you delay is costing you money as cross platform will give you more time for development.

See you in the course!

Sincerely,

I love creating software and teaching how to be more successful.

Currently, I work at Xing creating software for millions of people. I've worked in other big and successful companies like Softonic, Honda or Fnac creating websites, apps, designs, and software.

I really enjoy teaching people new skills so they can improve their lives.

All my life I've been surrounded by computers. As a child, my father - who was a programmer back then - introduced me to the world of computing, which marked me forever. Years later, after hours and hours in front of computers, I am dedicated to my passion: code.

I try to do my best to achieve the best result day by day.

Teacher is good but the content is outdated. It is stuck to 2017, lots have changes and if you want to use latest versions things break.

By Siddhartha Shyam Vyas on 12/14/2019

Its a lovely experience so far! I am glad and very happy that I am learning something which I couldn't imagine I could ever have like this. Its a very detail-oriented class, explains every stuff in detail, leaving no stone unturned

Ich werde ungeduldig, er redet zu viel um die eigentliche Sache herum

By Amilete Garçan on 7/6/2017

So far the course is good, I've been following the videos and I've managed to do everything. I'm still checking the lessons but so far I'm happy with the course and instructor

By Adrian Herrera on 6/16/2017

excellent course, and the instructor is quick to respond to problems his students have. I definitely would recommend to anyone interested in learning cross-platform development with Electron Shell.

By Pietro Bisignano on 5/17/2017

Corso dall'approccio molto pratico. Molto interessante ed efficace.

By Diggy on 5/2/2017

so I've done more than half of the course. I've already built my first crossplatform application thanks to the first modules. I'm working on windows and Adria cares about all the things needed for mac and windows development, so for now the course is perfect and I'm learning a lot. I did a search in the past for a complete crossplatform development course and couldn't find any so I'm very happy that this course offers all that I need. update: I've finished the course now and I can start creating applications which I'll be able to publish following the course process and tips. Very complete course
