Zoho Creator - Rapid Development Tool..

I'm been messing about with Zoho Creator to produce an app that allows me to input information about how much private study time I'm doing for each subject. It's a bit rough at the moment as it's a work in progress and I don't know enough about the 'back-end' yet. I'm hoping to build up a database of info that I can use and manupulate later in the year...

Here's the Link...

The Idea is that I'll be able to ensure that I'm not neglecting any subjects, aswell as giving me a better understanding of Zoho

It's pretty intuitive with plenty of drag and drop options. I'd like to embed it into a website and create a database from the results eventually.

Rapid Application Development

RAD was a reaction to the 1980's Structured Design approach. Structured Design was very rigid in its approach, required much documentation and instilled that the whole system design be planned and designed at the beginning of the project. This made it difficult to re-evaluate previous decisions.

RAD was designed to respond to these challenges and deliver a quicker, more flexible solution to client demands.

There are three main types of RAD:

1. Phased Development
   
2. Prototyping
   
3. Throw-away Prototyping.
