There was no need for that link. And why would you put it on the market if you wrote it? There would no need to put it on the market.

If you post again without the link I will share how I would do this. But with that link, it looks like spam to me.

Can develop and download

Once you develop the app and test it with simulator, you can download to your device only. To publish it, you must use app store. I've tried it and it was very easy.

I've downloaded and tried m-Bizmaker and found it very good. It was so easy to create a simple scheduler for myself with it. I strongly recommend trying it out. And, I would like to know if anyone tried to build more complicated applications.

You can create an application for your personal use, there is no issue in it, how can anyone restrict you to use your cell in the way you want it. Yes you can always share your applications either free or at some price.
