Moodle for mobile

Hi John 

To download the Moodle app, you will need to get it from the GitHub repository:
https://github.com/moodlehq/moodlemobile2 

You can either download this directly to your computer, or use the GitHub software to update the code through that.

To edit the code however, you will need a code editor:
Notepad++ is free and works on Windows.
Visual Studio also has a community version for code editing which is free.
If you have money that you can spend on a code editor I would suggest either:
Visual Studio [not sure how much this is]
Adobe Dreamweaver [CC subscription will set you back about £8/$10 per month]

Aside from that, follow the Moodle Mobile install directions: https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Setting_up_your_development_environment_for_Moodle_Mobile_2 

After this, use the Command Prompt to start and stop a server to run the app. 

If you are using the phonegap build, however, you can use something like WAMP as a local server, and host the www folder within this.  

These forums are a great resource if you get stuck, as well as videos on YouTube and questions on StackOverflow 

Hope this helps
