InDesign is a page layout program for printing, more or less. You
probably could use it to mock up your web pages but it's drastic
overkill when you're new to coding. Do your mock ups with static html,
as others have pointed out. If you're looking for an html editor, I'd
use something like Notepad if you're on Windows; that may sound
facetious but as a programmer you need to learn all the nitty gritty
stuff. Realistically you could use Eclipse, but don't use any wysiwyg
thing that it may have, for dragging and dropping things on the page;
edit the raw html so that you learn what it's about.
For starting out with java web programming, it wouldn't hurt to start
with plain old jsp and servlets. That might seem a bit antediluvian to
those of us using web frameworks like SpringMVC (ugh) or Stripes (yay!)
but it would get you up to speed with the concepts of the Java Servlet
Container and configuring things with web.xml, and whatnot.

Hi my name is Daniel, I'm new to coding, so everything literally feels
like a foreign language at this point, but I decided to start learning
because I'm interested in developing a news app for smartphones and
tablets.
Anyway i'm using the Java version of the GAE SDK and was wondering how
exactly does coding incorporate commercial-based software. Im saving
up to buy Adobe InDesign CS5.5 so that I can create the user interface
for the app, but I'm not sure how exactly that works itself out in
relation to coding the app itself.
How do I code the application so that it functions with the interface?
thanks for helping out:)
