Mobile Phone App Designer

A phone app in this shop is a set of screens designed next to the MatDeck document that feeds them. Navigation, forms, gestures and the preview are separate products, so you can buy the piece you are building for the bench.

LabDeck's guide to developing a mobile phone app is the full walkthrough. The 12 products here are the pieces: screens, navigation, form controls, gestures, media hooks, local storage, notifications, responsive layouts, icons, a device preview, an API client and a packager. Each one ships in 14 versions.

A form field can read a concentration or a sample id from the sheet, so the phone shows the same number the document calculated. Packaging uses that generated project rather than a layout you redraw in another tool.
