*I've never made a mobile app before. Will I be able understand what's going on?*
Zero prior mobile development experience is required. Programming experience is helpful but the course will start from square one.

*What should I bring?*
If you can, bring a laptop to follow along in the course and work as we go. Udacity runs on all the latest versions of modern browsers. For the best experience, your laptop should have Flutter installed prior to starting to save time. To install the Flutter tools, visit https://flutter.io/get-started/install/
