AppOnboard gives away tool that lets developers create instant apps

AppOnboard is announcing it will give away for free its AppOnboard Studio, which lets anyone design, build, and publish their own instant apps.

The tool does not require knowledge of coding, and it is now globally available for every developer to download and get started for free. Instant apps and games are immediately playable by consumers, without the need to download software. Those apps are often demos of larger games, and the instant apps are playable on Google Play.
