I want to start using B4J but I have no idea how to start using it? Is there a getting started guide? I can see there are lots of tutorials but I was wondering if there was a step by step book or something that I could purchase that takes you through introducing you to the language the program etc?
Thanks Beja, I dont actually know BASIC at all (come from a background of PHP + A little python) is there a place where I can learn from scratch or would that be better to do that with B4A?
B4A and B4J are quite similar. There are is more documentation available about B4A. You can start with the beginner's guide: http://www.b4x.com/android/documentation.html
Once you understand the basics of B4A you will find B4J much easier to start with. Overall B4J is simpler than B4A.
