3 years ago Looks like you did not link your gif walkthrough for this assignment or it is not rendering (animating) properly when viewed in the README 😬. The gif helps us to make sure we don't miss any required or optional stories you have completed.
Render your gif:
Once you have uploaded your gif to a site like imgur you can render it using the following syntax.
<a href="/course_images/android_university/%22my_gif_address.gif%22" target="_blank"><img src='/course_images/android_university/%22my_gif_address.gif%22' title='gif_description' width='' alt='gif_description' /></a>or
<img src="my_gif_address.gif", width=400 />Make sure all you have completed the following steps to completing your README:
- Make sure you have the correct README for this assignment, go to the "Setup" section in Assignment Tab for the corresponding week in the course portal.
- Please mark of all implemented stories
[x] - Add a link to your animated gif walkthough to your README and make sure it renders (animates) when viewing the README. (Or at least works when you click on the gif link)
Your assignment is incomplete until the GIF is valid. Once resolved, please push your updates and submit your assignment again through the Course Portal (within 48 hours from the posted deadline) so we can regrade it. We will no longer review resubmissions made after this date.
Still confused about how to properly submit your assignment? Check out the Submitting Assignments for detailed instructions.
Whenever you make updates to your project that require re-grading, you need to re-submit your project using the submit button on the associated assignment page in the course portal. This will flag your project as “updated” on our end and we know to re-grade.
You should re-submit your assignment anytime you:
- Update a previously incomplete assignment
- Add optional and additional features to an already completed assignment /cc @codepathreview
<img alt="+1" title="+1" src="/images/emoji/unicode/1f44d.png"}" style="vertical-align:middle" width="20" height="20" /> One of the most important part of these projects is that you add additional features and tweak the UI / UX because that will provide many more learning opportunities. I would encourage you to complete the projects each week with required stories early and then spend time adding your own UI elements and experimenting with optional extensions that will improve the user experience.
I have provided a detailed Project 1 Feedback Guide here which covers the most common issues with this submitted project. Read through the feedback guide point-by-point to determine how you could improve your submission. You should consider going back and implementing applicable feedback as well. Keep in mind that one of the most important parts of Android development is learning the correct patterns and conventions.
Hopefully this has given you a first sense of the RelativeLayout which is a very powerful layout system, probably one of the best responsive-first layout systems available across web and mobile platforms.
I would encourage you to also spend more time in future assignments improving the UI / UX as well by reviewing examples of good UI design.
If you have any particular questions about the assignment in general or on any of the feedback, post on the discussion forum or email us at support@codepath.org.
