@kwoolytech It's up to you on how to implement it. But i'd like to give you a chance to utilize android UI components like "GridLayout" , "PreferenceActivity", "SharedPreference", "ShareActionProvider", "PlacePicker"

Looks challenging but on the other hand, lots of things I can learn from this. :) Thank you for the decent assignment. Let me break this up into 4 or 5 PRs so that I can move forward step by step.

• Implement a NavigationDrawer to provide various options.
• Implement a description activity for more detail (technically this is same as the assignment1).
• Implement a Location Selector using a google map and PlacePicker android class.
• Think on what to save as a setting and implement the setting functions.
• Glue altogether.

@kwoolytech you can save latest selected location and temperature unit user's chosen as an initial implementation.
