My first suggestion to you is to learn Python programming. There are several great online resources out there. It is drastically different than C++, both syntax and concept wise. If you don't know Python you will struggle developing Apps with Dabo. > As a beginner, I hope I can ask questions here.

What exactly are you looking to accomplish with you app? What is the minimal feature set that you want to implement? > Does Dabo support making an app with SQLIte "portable"? Yes.
