khanahk Posted August 21, 2012 Report Share Posted August 21, 2012 Hello, I can make a browser window pop up in Firefox with my fancy web programming skills... ..but I can't make Firefox. This bothers me and I want to dominate the realm of offline programming (some would say 'real programming', no?). Where do I start? C++? This is what I believe I should do... Any resources/advise will be most helpful Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krishaweb7 Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 Hi There, I think you are passionate about what you do but you should also keep that in mind that you are talking about native applications right, you can develop websites with current skills as you may know so why you want to become a software developer. You can be a good web developer and if you insist and you want to stick to firefox like native apps then learn programming languages like :- Java, C++ , C# - Visual Basic, Objective C/Cocoa. Search it on any search engine you will find plenty of resource. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
administrator Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 If you want to work in big business or government, you want to go to learn Java or C#. But, in that case, because of the red tape, you will need to get a degree in computer science or engineering. If on the other hand, you rather work for smaller companies, or as a freelancer, then go for PHP, Javascript, HTML5, iOS or Ruby. Pick one and become good at it. I would suggest trying a little of each for a month or so to get a feel ... each environment has its' feel. For instance C++ programming is VERY different from PHP programming.

SmithWarnes Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 You can surely be a good developer If you are passionate about your work. Just need to develop your skills much more than the prevailing developers if you plan to build a browser. You can start with C++,C#, JAVA, PHP it will help you develop your skills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
