Software Development: Essential Terms for Beginners to Know

Certainly, here are some essential terms related to software development that beginners, including software developers in India, should know:

Algorithm: A step-by-step set of instructions to solve a specific problem or perform a task, often used in programming and data processing.

Code: The written instructions in a programming language that computers can understand and execute.

Programming Language: A formal language used to write computer programs, like Python, Java, C++, etc.

IDE (Integrated Development Environment): A software suite that combines code editor, debugger, and compiler tools to streamline the software development process.

Version Control: The management of changes to source code over time, allowing multiple developers to collaborate on a project without conflicts.

Git: A popular distributed version control system used to track changes in source code during software development.

Repository: A storage location for version-controlled source code and related files, often hosted on platforms like GitHub or GitLab.

Debugging: The process of identifying and fixing errors or bugs in software code.

API (Application Programming Interface): A set of protocols and tools for building software applications. It specifies how different software components should interact.

Framework: A pre-built set of tools, libraries, and conventions that simplifies the development of specific types of software applications.

Database: A structured collection of data that can be accessed, managed, and updated. Examples include MySQL, PostgreSQL, and MongoDB.

Frontend: The user-facing part of a software application, typically involving the user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) design.

Backend: The server-side part of a software application that handles data processing, database interactions, and business logic.

API Endpoint: A specific URL where an API can be accessed, allowing applications to communicate with each other.

Deployment: The process of making a software application available for use, typically on a server or a cloud platform.

DevOps (Development and Operations): A set of practices that aim to automate and integrate the processes of software development and IT operations.

Agile: A project management and development approach that emphasizes iterative and collaborative work, adapting to changes throughout the development cycle.

Scrum: An Agile framework that divides work into time-boxed iterations called sprints and emphasizes collaboration and adaptability.

User Story: A simple description of a feature from the user's perspective, often used in Agile methodologies.

Continuous Integration (CI) / Continuous Deployment (CD): Practices that involve automatically integrating code changes and deploying new versions of software frequently and reliably.

Sprint: A fixed time period (usually 1-4 weeks) in Agile development during which a specific set of tasks or features are worked on.

Algorithm Complexity: The measurement of how much time or memory an algorithm requires to solve a problem based on its input size.

Full Stack Developer: A developer who is proficient in both frontend and backend development.

Responsive Design: Designing software interfaces that adapt and display well on various screen sizes and devices.

Open Source: Software that is made available with its source code, allowing anyone to view, modify, and distribute it.

These terms provide a foundational understanding of software development concepts for beginners, including software developers in India.

I’m a bit late to this party, but better late than never!

(Also I made this a a little while ago but slipped my mind to post it here!)

Update: I removed the extra tags of other From Software games to avoid confusion.

By jove I think I finally made procreate dreams work for something. I love flipbook animation, Procreate is great for flipbook IF you only use one layer. Dreams is great for video editing, but is abysmal for drawing (no lasso tool!! Its been like a year!!!!) BUT if you drag and drop animations from procreate to dreams, it lets me basically use dreams as layers for animation like I wanted. Finally, I can not regret the 20$ spent on this stupid app lmao.

Here's Leman, the ears and tail are separately animated, and it also lets me mess with timing! Prob sounds like nothing to everyone else but I'm delighted lmao.

If you hate capitalism, or just really like free stuff that's cool, check this out:

Have any of your gotten frustrated by Google's Play store? If so, check out F-Droid

It's a store that has open source apps which are described honestly by their creators because they're not trying to sell you something. It actually lists "anti-features" of apps right after the "features" list so you know all the flaws too.

I found the Saber notes app on it, which is actually also on Google Play but is drowned out there by all the other more annoying less functional apps.

youtube ads becoming first one 5-second ad then two 5-second ads in a row or one 15-second ad then a million unskippable ads in the middle of videos instagram quietly inserting one ad in-between every 5 or 10 ig stories then 2 in-between 4 ig stories not to mention the new reel- and explore page ads. a quiet tumblr ad banner at the top of your dash then photo ads in-between posts then video ads then video ads in-between every 3 or 5 posts that play audio automatically while youre trying to read a textpost. the most popular, paid subscription, news apps adding ads between their articles, then in articles, then paywalling new articles further with a new "news +" subscription and putting ads in those as well. once every 15 tweets there being an ad, then every 5, then theres also an ad if you scroll to the replies. you cant look at tweets without logging in anymore, theres just no option for anon scrolling. facebook ai mining on instagram, facebook ai profiles hyping up ai generated photos im fucking going insane ai temu ads and gallery app ads and printer app ads and higher subscriptions while still seeing ads and i cant fucking do this anymore!!!!! its fucking shameless and worst of all its silent and nobody talks about how half the things we see anymore are fucking ads and we dont own a single thing we pay for and companies can just randomly raise their prices through the roof and nobody says anything about it

Not sure where to ask this, so im posting here as well as some forums BUT:

Basically I really love using Figma for making interactive menus. I have used Figma for mocking up websites and mobile apps before at my job, and in my odd time I’ve taken to using figma to prototype and make sketches of things like UI and flowcharts for the game my friends and I are developing. And even more recently I prototyped a fully custom, nice-looking, interactive character sheet for my character in the current campaign im playing.

Now, It’s got me thinking: I would really, really love to build custom character sheets for people as a side job as its something i genuinely enjoy doing. But the problem is, figma will not exist forever and I have foreseen that it might be a pain to build someone a prototype and I am the sole person to make updates whenever their character levels, they get new gear etc and I don’t really like the idea of forcing people to make an account for a tool they wont want to learn or use outside of the prototype i send them. Additionally, Figma prototype is ultimately not ideal for more distinguished and specific character sheets as I’d like for it to be.

For example, I would love to make buttons that a user can tap to mark how many death saves they have succeeded or failed, I want the user to be able to mark for inspiration and conditions, etc. I know I could possibly feasibly make it work all inside one scrollable frame, but the way I prefer to set up the character sheets requires navigating to different frames with buttons.

What other good alternatives are there? I like to make these character sheets for mobile use (phones and tablets) so should I jump to app development? I don’t mind learning new or more complicated softwares, just as long as the software is free, there’s a free trial long enough for me to learn the gist of the software, a single larger purchase for a license for a good amount of features, or the cost for subscription is low. Is Godot a good software to use for this? My team is learning godot anyway for our game as we were discouraged from Unreal Engine.

Sorry if you have answered this before but, I was wondering what do you use to animate? Or what drawing app/software do you use?

Hello! No bother- I should probably make some kind of intro with this stuff-

But I won’t-

For drawing I use Ibis paint x, the free version- 

For frame by frame animation I mainly use flipaclip,

And for tweened animation I use alight motion

but I’ve been using toon boom more recently and might switch? Probably not- I heard toom squid is also really good

For editing I use a mix of alight motion and capcut

Capcut is really good for basic editing like camera movements or colour corrections

Alight motion is for the heavier stuff, compositing, adding rim lighting and shadows

Tip. If you don’t want the alight motions watermark just export it twice, one with the water mark on the bottom and one with it on the top

Than add those video to capcut with one being an overlay and use the mask tool to cut out the watermark for one of the videos-

Sorry if that sounds confusing-
