comp sci 2 app development blog

Ok, so we have a pretty short time-line to get our new goal worked out. Since the LASA showcase is coming up we really need to get a good homepage working so that when people click on our app they don't just see a blank tab, blank tab, fully working calendar, blank but actually something that looks pretty and functional. So, this week we're going to have to work very hard and we're going to need to do a lot of designing to get a functional homepage out. Hopefully we can also put some filler pictures in for the other tabs to give an idea as to how the app will end up looking so that people at the showcase are like "wooooooow, that's one cool looking app". We have our work cut out for us for this upcoming week.

blog

This week was a turnaround from the week prior. We actually got quite a bit done. We've managed to work out the kinks in the calendar view and I made the buttons we need in photoshop over the weekend. We actually only ended up getting one day of work because there were only 2 blocks last week and for the last block we were at a college visit. Now just to do the tutorials...

BLOG

This blog is going to be short because I can't type. I got stung by a bee and my finger hurts. This week wasn't very productive, but we did get things done. Everything slowed down mainly because we actually completed our 6 weeks checkpoint. The calendar section is nearly done; I'm just resizing it to fit the screen. We may need more tabs so I don't know if I'll need to do some more photoshop work. Overall, however, things are good.

MY NEWEST BLOG POST

This week feels like it was sort of a break. We were programming those robots all week and they made things very relaxed this week, which made for a nice end to the week in which I actually ended being in the top in the final fights between the robots. As far as our app goes however, we're trying to figure out how to embed google calendar, but it's very hard to do, because it looks as if Android only enables one calendar on screen at a time and the LASA calendar is actually multiple calendars layered upon each other on the lasaonline website (i.e. a sports calendar in blue, a holiday calendar in red, etc.). This is where we're stuck at currently and we don't know exactly what to do. Overall however, it was a good week.

Moblie App Development BLOG 3

The first six weeks has ended and I feel good as far as the app goes. Our development came along nicely, we each got 3 tutorials done and finally completed our layout. We're going to push ahead and I'm looking forward to getting our robocode done; it sounds like fun. Our group is running well and we aren't getting too distracted. Next up we're going to the calendar section and we hope that it will be easy. Second six weeks, here we come!
