Abstractionless Programming in App Inventor

Published in ACM SPLASH BLOCKS+ Workshop, 2018

In this paper, an analysis shows that many of the opportunities for abstraction involve a difficult concept in App Inventor, generics. We make the hypothesis that this is the main reason for App Inventor programmers’ lack of abstractions, and recommend that more work be done to teach App Inventor programmers about generics.
