Prerequisites

"Requirements" before starting Windows 96 app development.

Prerequisite skills

Apps are created with a combination of JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. You will need a reasonable amount of knowledge of these languages, as well as the Windows 96 JavaScript API, to create satisfactory Windows 96 applications.

Some useful resources

• We recommend you to learn web development from the MDN Web Docs, which can be found here. The documentation provided by Mozilla provides ample API examples and compatibility charts to help you to create well designed and scalable web apps.

• If you already know web development or simply want to learn making Windows 96 apps by doing, you can follow the API examples found in this documentation and learn from them instead. But we recommend you to do both - read the MDN docs and follow our examples :)

• Windows 96 has a Discord server, where you can communicate with fellow users and developers. We recommend you to join it, especially if you are actively developing Windows 96 apps. The link is available in the top menubar of the DevDocs.
