Ideas for app development #1

Open kvijay1995 opened 9 years ago

kvijay1995 commented 9 years ago

A thread to discuss the ideas for this app. As we previously discussed, I remember that we need the following stack:

1) Front-end - Java for Android 2) Back-end - MySQL work bench

Please add anything that I've missed here @Uttam-Gupta

Uttam-Gupta commented 9 years ago

we would additionally also require an server to host the database, and also to handle server side requests from the UI.

Uttam-Gupta commented 9 years ago

But before starting to build any of this stuff,we have to start with design i.e UI,we can later decide whether we want to add on the database feature to create and handle accounts

kvijay1995 commented 9 years ago

Yeah you're right, that would probably be the best way to start. I guess the first thing then is to start messing around with the java graphics engine? Or is there another way for UI design? I'll try googling for solutions.

Uttam-Gupta commented 9 years ago

i have never worked with java graphics engine before,i thought we'd start by using the Standard ADT tools,ADT gives us a modded form of eclipse which can be used to design the UI by swing.But like i said i hav no expertise with android ,If u let me knw how to work around the java graphics engine, we can work that way.what say?or if u come up other solution we can try that too.

Uttam-Gupta commented 9 years ago

and download these tools bro ,these are important for android development.You can download it from here .http://developer.android.com/tools/help/adt.html

kvijay1995 commented 9 years ago

Thanks man! I'll download that and start messing with it. Meanwhile, since you've never used git before it might be a good idea for you to check this link out:

https://try.github.io/levels/1/challenges/1

Even though that's just a trial version, it should give you a basic idea to do things in git. If you have spare time AND you're more interested in git, check this very helpful link out:

Thanks a lot bro! I had no idea on how to work on this thing before,those links really helped me a lot !

Uttam-Gupta commented 9 years ago

Hey i was googling a bit abt creating an android application,and i think we should start by learning about xml layouts and swing programming in java.we will have to create the UI of our application through xml.i also found out that rest of the coding can be done by importing java class written in swing.So lets start by learning some amount xml layout basics and java swing programming. Then we can work on our app.Though android studio provides us some tools,i think it would be pointless to use them without knowing the basics.

kvijay1995 commented 9 years ago

No problem dude! Glad it helped out!

Yeah I downloaded Android studio last night, and I was overwhelmed by all the info in it. So yea, I think what you said above is a good idea. Please let me know if you find anything useful that's relevant to XML/swing

Uttam-Gupta commented 9 years ago

hey when u try to run ur app using the avd u'll be facing a error saying intel haxm not installed.If u get that error let me knw i can help u with the solution.

Uttam-Gupta commented 9 years ago

And mostly try to run ur app using mobile by downloading the appropriate driver,unless ur system has a high end config,u wiil be facing a lot problems with the android emulator,
