If you are a beginner and want to develop an android app, I recommend learning Java. You need to have a basic idea about Android App Designing like building a simple user interface and handling user input. For this, you can search for the Youtube tutorials in order to get the basic idea about different concepts such as, how to install the Java Development Kit and Eclipse( the Integrated Development Environment or IDE for Java). This will help you to get the basic knowledge of syntax behind java concepts like if statements and loops.

Once you have learned all the basics, I recommend ditching the YouTube now. Get a lecture series or book related to java, as Youtube tutorials will not provide intuition behind main concepts that are required in the development if you really wish to develop an Android app.

Developing an Android app is easy if you learn how to set up and make use of a number of free tools to make a simple app which can be tested on your computer. It will not be enough to learn theoretical concepts, you will also need hands-on-experience in developing Android app to become a good developer. So, practice well to get your desired results.

Hopefully, this will help you.

Android might not be the best choice for starting game development because you would be learning several different things at the same time (Android SDK, making games, optimization, different phone models, etc.). Consider making some simple Java games on your computer to get familiar with making games in general; this tutorial Java 2D games tutorial looks like a good place to start.
Cost of the developer: When you hire a developer for Android app development, you can take the average cost of the developer to be $ 5-10 per hour if you are hiring on hourly basis and approx $100 on a monthly basis. This figure will vary according to the technical expertise and experience of the developer. Here more info How Much Does It Cost to Develop a Mobile App?

That's great! You still have to know a little something about programming (what block does what), but it's so easy this way. You don't have to worry about code syntax and other issues which arise when you type in the code manually.
P.S. Got so excited about this and busted the whole evening making a crude LC calculator Works fine! Very basic functionality, but I did few things here and there so it won't throw errors when a user puts a zero pF or nH, or leaves the field empty, or better yet puts a text there instead of numbers

I would love to find a true developer for 10 bucks a hours,that will never happen!
A true developer will run 50 per hour not 10..

If you have programming background then it’s very simple to build Android apps. Download android SDK eclipse tool that is android software development kit used to build any type of android application. If you don’t have programming knowledge then it’s good to hire android developer.

I want to make an app that notifies people at their predetermined time of day, so many days( user set )before, for when i am throwing a party. It will also have to load a sort of database of when new events are from i was hoping a google sheet or something else that hosting is cost free.

You should have proper programming knowledge if you want to develop application but if you want to convert your website into android application then you can use website to app converter online

Android Studio would be a good option for you to start learning how to develop Android apps. Reading up about android development as well as how to use Android Studio will help you get the basics of Android app development in place.

Consider a hybrid approach. Ionic framework will late you build an app that can be pushed to iOS and Android. Loving it.

Also, you can find some templates of apps that you can modify to your liking.

Here's the minimal set that comes to mind:

  • You need to learn a language to code in on the client to define the app behavior.
  • You need to learn how to set up a development environment for your target device, and how to debug the code on the device.
  • You need a language to code in on the server (where the database lives) to serve the data to the app.
  • You need to learn how to set up and manage a server to host the database.
  • You need to learn some database API to query it for the data.
  • You need to learn the client layout language/format to lay out your UI.

That's "all."

Some of the above can be simplified if you start with the right framework. Meteor.js, for instance, lets you write code on the client and server both in JavaScript, you can use their free service as your database server, and the database will automatically synchronize with the client code.

Good luck.
