Software and mobile applications are equally as important to conservation technology as the hardware used in the field. Increasingly developed specifically for #tech4wildlife needs, there are mobile apps and software options designed to help with protected area management, wildlife crime reporting, and anti-poaching patrol planning, data analysis, community science, data visualization and GIS mapping, outreach and engagement, and even conservation storytelling.
Likewise, mobile games have opened up new avenues for engaging the public in conservation efforts, allowing for immersive storytelling and interactive experiences. By combining cutting-edge technology and important conservation information with a media form already familiar to the public, conservationists are finding exciting ways to make audiences feel personally invested in critical species and habitats.
Whether you're looking for software and mobile app developers to help you with your own conservation tech needs, you have questions about development, you're looking for resources, or you'd like to share your own app, software, or gaming tools, this is the group for you!

OpenSource Drag and Drop Windows 10 software builder

Hi Kas
LiveCode is open source (www.livecode.org) and can build for multiple platforms - Windows, MacOS, Linux + mobiles. Might be worth having a look at - it has an english-like scripting language and drag + drop GUI builder. You can develop on multiple platforms too so not limited to Windows.
You're probably already finished, but maybe someone else will find it useful.

Hi Alan,
Thanks for the suggestion.
I ended up using Visual Studio but will take a look at LiveCode for future work - sounds very cool.
Thanks,
Kas

Hi Ricardo,
Thanks for taking the time to respond. I'll look into the electronjs.org option and see if I can get VS through the uni.
If you come across any other drag-and-drop style platforms (preferably free) that you can use to build windows 10 software, it would be great if you can pop me a message on this. Something like what you get when building a website through Wordpress or Wix would be perfect.
Cheers again!
