In addition to this you can also have a look at one of the web APIs like JavaScript. You can start learning this without any costs. And there are a lot of samples and tutorials in our documentation.</P><P></P><P>Regards,</P><P>David</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 13 Oct 2014 13:29:21 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/developers-questions/advice-about-learning-gis-development/m-p/325753#M2063 DavidLednik 2014-10-13T13:29:21Z Re: Advice about Learning GIS Development? https://community.esri.com/t5/developers-questions/advice-about-learning-gis-development/m-p/325754#M2064 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Thank you!&nbsp; I will look into this.&nbsp; </P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 13 Oct 2014 13:48:18 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/developers-questions/advice-about-learning-gis-development/m-p/325754#M2064 KenricMcCay 2014-10-13T13:48:18Z
