Any Windows app developer?

Question

I want to make an application for an entry system like an attendance system for gyms. This has to be something exactly like the modern attendance systems we have in work places(the one where we use our fingerprint for identification). I know Java, C, C++ and a very little Python.

Now how do I start this? I've searched the forum for answers but couldn't find one that helps me. What do I need to learn to make this? Could you give me something like a road map from your experience of creating your first application? I'm an intelligent person who can learn new stuff fast and understand complex things easily.

I would be greatly thankful if you can help me =)

Answer 1

I will suggest you try with javaFx its will be easy if u have basic idea of java then u can easily do you can use fxml for designing. For this u can download screen builder which is similar to Android studio which provide drag and drop features u can design your application as well and also you can make great gui . If you will try in C++ then you need to install so many packages and libraries which is little bit tough to do setup if u will be try with SDL , SFML then yiu need to write so many codes your code become very complex and if you will face any issues you will not get much more help from Google ..

Answer 2

There are many GUI libraries you can use. Qt and GTK are the leading ones, I guess.
If you want a native Windows look then go for Qt or you can use api provided by windows (Win32).
I will not suggest you using SDL, opengl or SFML. Because they are drawing tools and need too much struggling. So just go for a library by which you can make GUI apps easily and efficiently.

You can use these libraries in almost any general purpose programming language.

You will need JVM for JAVA and interpreter for PYTHON. So, I will suggest you to use C++ or C#. C# will be a better choice according to your requirements.
