I will be in charge of teaching a small group of middle school students how to program phone applications. After much research I found that Python might be the best way to go.
I am a website development senior at my university, but I have not used Python before. I understand both ActionScript and Javascript and I think their logic might be beneficial for learning Python. For the web languages I am familiar with writing I use Sublime2, Dreamweaver, or Flash to code them.
So my questions are:
Which program do I use to code Python?
How do I use the code created in Python to work on Android phones?
You can definitely develop an Android app using Python. And this thing is not only limited to python, you can in fact develop Android applications in many more languages other than Java. Yes, in point of fact, Python on android is a lot easier than Java and much better when it comes to complexity.
Yes, that is possible and this article is directed towards explaining and demonstrating to the readers how an android app can be written in Python. The framework for this task will be employed as Kivy and APK packaging will be executed by Buildozer.
I would suggest you to look at http://kivy.org/#home. It supports android, iphone, etc. Also if you are familliar with javascript as you said you can try great titanium accelerator, or some alternative to develop android app.
