MIT-inspired terms and clues

by JUAN PABLO TOVAR CASALLAS
1

The user interface where you select, drag, and drop visual components (like buttons, images, and text boxes) to design how your app will look on the screen.

2

The programming workspace where you connect visual, puzzle-like pieces together to create the logic, behavior, and functionality of your app.

3

The menu on the left side of the Designer screen that holds all the available components (User Interface, Media, Sensors, etc.) that you can add to your app.

4

The individual building blocks of an app (such as a ListPicker, Spinner, Checkbox, or Button) that appear on the screen or work in the background.

5

The specific settings of a component—such as height, width, color, or text—that can be changed to customize how the component looks or behaves.

6

The section in the Designer where you upload and manage external files used in your app, such as images, sounds, audio clips, and videos.

7

A button that, when clicked, opens a separate screen with a list of items for the user to choose from. It is best for long lists (more than 5 choices) and includes a searchable filter bar.

8

A simpler, less customizable dropdown menu that opens directly on the current screen rather than a new one, making it ideal for shorter lists.

9

The simplest menu component consisting of a single element that a user can either select (check) or unselect (uncheck).

10

The core mission of MIT App Inventor, which aims to make software development accessible to everyone—especially young people—shifting them from consumers to creators of technology.
