Hey! Anyone have good online learning resources for building an app they would recommend?

I've never built an app before so I'm looking for some advice and pointers to good self-learning content online. Also if anyone has experience in this area and is looking for a new venture, would be great to team up on this - email me at cj@christianjohnstone.com to chat!

Also any general advice on things like protecting your idea from being copied etc would be amazing.

Thanks in advance!

    Here's what I have learned about protecting against copycats: it's mostly a matter of strong execution of the idea.

    When I was a kid, I knew a guy who claimed he had invented trivia games before Trivial Pursuit became a big hit. But even though he had hit upon the idea of a trivia board game, his implementation of the idea was clunky and complicated and a lot less appealing than Trivial Pursuit.

    I feel it's like that. There were lots of less successful Facebooks before Facebook. Like really early, pre-Friendster ones. I am talking about sites with names like "7Degrees.com"...
