Codepath Submission with Extensions #2

Open chmod600 opened 8 years ago

chmod600 commented 8 years ago

Hello!

I'd like to submit this app as my completed Pre-work for the class starting in September.

I have added the extensions suggested by you as well as implemented a feature that solves a problem that I personally face. Please review my submission.

Added Feature: Most TODO apps allow you to organize your life. But sometimes your friends/roommates may want to remind you of certain errands like "Get Milk", "Pay Bills", etc and add these to your TODOs. Makelist's unique Text-a-TODO features lets you send TODOs to your friends as easily as sending a text message. Similarly, you can receive TODOs from your friends too.

The list view displays if a certain task was assigned by yourself or by somebody else. Other details like priority, due date are also displayed.

Thanks!

Hello, Akshay.

Looks good, this exercise is intended in part to give you an introduction to the general rhythm of this course. The course is entirely project-based with an app being assigned each week and then due the following week. Each project builds on the last to help each engineer learn the practical elements of Android development and best practices as quickly as possible. We also do a code review for each submitted project once the program begins.

Great to see you were able to complete some extensions to your app already. The extension tasks available on each project are often the most valuable learnings since they dive deeper into common real-world Android use cases. We encourage you to continue working on extensions to your todo app as a way to further explore Android development.

See you can expand the functionality of the app or instead work to improve the user interface by experimenting with colors, spacing, styling, icons, etc. Be sure to take a look through our organizing your source files guide for additional tips on structure as well.

We'll be following up with you again shortly to outline the next steps in the admissions process.
