Creating a mobile application using the App Inventor 2 programming tool

V diplomski nalogi smo predstavili programsko orodje App Inventor 2 in njegove funkcionalnosti ter lastnosti. Orodje omogoča ustvarjanje realnih aplikacij za mobilne naprave. V teoretičnem delu diplomske smo razložili zakaj izbrati prav to orodje in opisali smo slabosti ter prednosti tega orodja. Zaradi enostavnosti in raznolikosti je privlačen za vse generacije. Programsko orodje deluje na podlagi tehnologije Java. Orodje omogoča najrazličnejše funkcionalnosti med drugim tudi senzorje kot so npr. senzor za določanje lokacije, senzor za štetje korakov (pedometer), senzor za orientacijo, senzor za merjenje pospeškov in senzor za svetlobo. Pri implementaciji mobilne aplikacije smo omenjene senzorje tudi uporabili in prikazali delovanje. Mobilna aplikacija je narejena z orodjem »App Inventor 2«.In this thesis we presented the App Inventor 2 software tool and its functionalities and features. The tool lets you create real-world mobile apps. In the theoretical part of the thesis we explained why to choose this exact tool and described both its advantages and disadvantages. Its simplicity and diversity make it attractive to all generations. The software is Java based. The tool provides a variety of functionalities, including sensors such as location sensor, step sensor (pedometer), orientation sensor, accelerometer, and proximity sensor. In the implementation of the mobile application, we have also used these sensors and shown their operation. The mobile application is made using the "App Inventor 2" software tool
