[Android Bootcamp] Project 4 - Twitter Client #1

Open kdk-yahoo opened 9 years ago

kdk-yahoo commented 9 years ago

Project is 99% done. Unfortunately, I'm having trouble getting the other people's tweets to load on the other people's profiles. For some the username variable is being set to none.

I apologize for handing this in late. I normally have more time to work on this during the weekend, but due to unexpected site outages, I was unable to find the time. I'll be done to standard tonight if you'll still take it. @nesquena

Please submit with required user stories completed tonight and ping me again here then.

@nesquena Should be good now. Thanks for your patience and understanding.

One question, though as you might notice in the gif the mentions fragment does not update automatically when the app returns from composing a new tweet. I do update the fragment currently, attached to the frame layout(user time line), but since the mentions fragment isn't in it I'm not sure hot to get to it. How do I get a handle on the mentions fragment when it is currently not being displayed?

Thanks again,

--Kevin

See tips #4 and 5. You may want to simply switch to the home timeline tab and insert it that way as explained there.

:+1: Project looks good. I have provided a detailed Project 4 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 might be able to improve your submission.

Let us know if you have any other thoughts or questions about this assignment. Hopefully you can see this coming together as a "fully fledged" twitter client with some more work and polish. This app contains all of the components now (fragments, models, networking, client, tab navigation, image loading, et al) of 90% of dynamic data-driven API client. Obviously there are lots of details and patterns to learn, but by this point you have been introduced to all the major frameworks and concepts. Hopefully you would feel fairly confident getting started making Android apps for instagram, pinterest, yardsale, flickr, using the same patterns.
