The above are the main steps in developing WeChat mini programs. An excellent WeChat applet can be developed by registering and authenticating, clarifying the functions and requirements of the applet, obtaining the applet AppID, creating the applet project, developing the applet, debugging, testing, auditing, and releasing online.

Developing a WeChat mini program can enable businesses and users to connect more closely, share and promote through the WeChat platform, with no installation required, click and play capabilities, further enhancing the influence and visibility of the enterprise. So, how can we develop a successful WeChat mini program? Next, Guangzhou Mingruixundong Company will share with you the steps for developing WeChat mini programs.


How to develop WeChat mini programs

Step 1: Registration and Certification


Firstly, before developing WeChat mini programs, we need to register a mini program account on the WeChat public platform to obtain relevant permissions and information for the mini program.. After completing the registration, it is necessary to authenticate the mini program. The authentication of WeChat public platform can be divided into two modes: WeChat Pay authentication and WeChat official account authentication. We can choose one of them according to our needs.


Step 2: Determine requirements and functions


Next, we need to clarify the functions and requirements for developing WeChat mini programs. You should know the positioning of the developed mini program and what it is used for, such as product promotion, social networking, gaming, and entertainment. Considering the positioning of the mini program and the target user group, based on needs and pain points, better development and design can be carried out.


Step 3: Obtain the AppID of the mini program


After completing registration, authentication, and determining the requirements, you can obtain the AppID of the WeChat mini program on the Development Basic Configuration page of the WeChat public platform, and set the server domain name, message push, and legal domain name of the WeChat mini program.


Step 4: Create a mini program project


Then log in to the WeChat public platform, enter the mini program management background, select Development Development Settings, and view the AppID. Select Development Development Management in the left navigation bar, click Create New Mini Program Project, fill in the project name, project directory, and local development directory of the mini program, and click OK to start creating the project.


Step 5: Develop a mini program


In the development tool, we can select multiple function modules such as code editor, designer, real machine preview, simulator, Debugger to develop WeChat applet. In the code editor, we can write code to set page structure, style, and logic. It should be noted that the code for WeChat mini programs is written based on HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. In addition, in the designer, we can preview the actual effect of the mini program and debug it.


Step 6: Debugging, testing, and auditing


After completing the code development of the WeChat mini program, debugging and testing are needed to ensure that the WeChat mini program can run normally and meet the requirements. After confirming that there are no issues, you can submit the mini program code for review on the development management page of the WeChat public platform. The WeChat official will review the submitted code, and once it is approved, the mini program can be launched.


Step 7: Publish and Go Live


After the WeChat mini program development review is approved, we can publish it on the Development Management page of the WeChat public platform. After successful publishing, users can search for the name of the mini program or scan the mini program code through WeChat, enter the mini program, and use it.


The above are the main steps in developing WeChat mini programs. An excellent WeChat applet can be developed by registering and authenticating, clarifying the functions and requirements of the applet, obtaining the applet AppID, creating the applet project, developing the applet, debugging, testing, auditing, and releasing online.
