Hi Nathan,

Submitting this weeks assignment - twitter app. I could only cover the basic features , though I would continue working on the optional ones.

It took me 8 hours with 2 hours spent on unsuccessful attempt to include the optional pull to refresh feature. (I could not get the project dependencies sorted out - all is well during build , but I am missing some package level configuration required for runtime)

Screenshots attached -

:+1: nice work overall Suhas but as you mentioned bare in terms of features. A few notes after checking out the code:

• Good to see you were able to format the timestamp cleanly
• Good to see you added the tweet to the home timeline after you posted new on compose
• Consider adding the character count for Compose Activity to limit to 140. See this event handler for more details.
• Consider removing BaseModel from Tweet and User and follow this json to model approach instead which doesn't require BaseModel
• Consider adding ActiveAndroid to the Tweet and User. See the persistence guide and this other guide for more details.

Here's a detailed Project 3 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.

Let us know if you have any other thoughts or questions about this assignment. Hopefully by now you feel pretty comfortable with all the major pieces to basic Android apps (Views, Controllers, ActionBar, Navigation, Models, Authentication, API Communication, Persistence, et al) and see how they all fit together. We are close now to a turning point in the course where you should be hitting a "critical mass" towards your knowledge of Android.
