With that, you've finished working through the content on developing geospatial apps without programming.  For some of you, especially those who work in an organization with an ArcGIS Online account, what you've learned in this lesson will sufficiently meet your app development needs.  However, if you find that the available widgets can't quite be added together to form the app you want, you'll need to learn about web programming technologies.  In the next lesson, you'll learn about HTML and CSS, languages that are used to define the content and presentation style of web pages.  With that foundation laid, you'll be ready to spend the rest of the course learning about Esri's JavaScript-based Application Programming Interface (API), which provides developers a finer level of control over their apps than is possible with their non-programming options.
