Will's Personal Log
pushed changes to my branch and merged with master. Worked with john to resolve conflicts and integrate our work. app has basic functionality.
I've got a working listview that pulls data from parse and displays a photo overlayed with its entry date in a scrollable format. Photos respond well to different screen orientations.
I've begun work on the ListView implementation where users may scroll through their past entries. https://parse.com/docs/android/guide ParseQueryAdapter seems to be deprecated so I will be using ArrayAdapter. I've created some test data in our parse data browser to work with.
I've created a parse.com account; I believe are team is taking this route for our back-end storage. I also made my first commits/requests to and from github and android studio.
This Week I constructed a UML design for our app with input from the team. I believe I've solved most of my gradle build issues (time went from ~10 minutes to ~20 seconds).
This week Columbia was devastated by flooding and rain-waters. I didn't spend very much time on the diet app.
I ordered an android device off amazon.com and set it up to work with android studio. I have successfully been able test my code on the device. Also, our group got together to produce a detailed layout of our application. Currently practicing with ListView and DrawerLayout controls.
This week I continued to work with android studio but made little progress as the emulator (still, after re-installation with modified settings) worked very poorly; I've begun searching for an android device to use for testing. I also attended Mr. Vidal's biweekly meeting.
I brainstormed ideas for a user interface and drew a few screens to display my ideas. I also came up with 2 Personas that represent unique users of our app. I also attended a workshop by 52inc for android app development in effort to better understand the foundations of development.
Met with instructor as well as clients to discuss the bigger picture of the project. I've downloaded android studio and begun debugging my first "hello world" app. I've also started to think about ways to handle access of submitted photos.
This week I proposed a group time to accomplish Milestone 1. At this meaning I engaged in the group discussion regarding meeting times, approaches, and strategies. I've begun to research Android app development tools.
