Hi Ayush.....

Universities worldwide provideB.Tech in Computer Science specialized in a wide range of areas, like Data Science, Games and Multimedia, IT Security and so on.

This can lead to confusions, especially to students who prepare to become tech experts. Such is the case of App development vs. Software programming. Are these disciplines the same thing and if not, how are they different?

The easy answer is: App developers create mobile and computer apps and software programmers create, test programs or systems and fix bugs if and when they encounter them. But there’s more to it. 

Anyone who hears the App development instantly thinks of mobile applications. And they are not wrong. App development means the process of designing, creating, testing and finally launching an app that is meant to satisfy the need of many users.
