Potential merge with TimeStyle? #13

Open tilden opened 6 years ago

tilden commented 6 years ago

You're making great progress with TimeStyleBB! Would you be potentially interested in merging the projects back together? Perhaps we could create a separate GitHub organization to handle it? (If we did that I could also move my current work on a Fitbit port into that organization as well)

It would be great for me to merge my work with your application. As your application has many more visibility than mine it will be nice if all these users had access to my work!

My development already contain almost all of your work. I have publish my work as a standalone app only because it looks like that you had stop your developments on timestyle.

For the Pebble part no need to create a new repository. I think that Github give the "Collaborators" possibility for that.

For the Fitbit part, I am interested to participate in this portage despite the fact that I do not have any Fitbit watch (in fact no Pebble watch anymore at all) But is it really possible to port this application on Fitbit keeping the same code base? It looks like thats Fitbit applications are only developed using JavaScript. I am wrong?

Oh that makes sense! I've added you as a collaborator to the TimeStyle repo, so you can now push to it. Once you get your changes in I'll make a few tweaks to the settings page (I'd like to have the preview mode show the bottom bar when in that mode) and then I will get it published to the Pebble store!

You're correct, it's a complete rewrite, plus a redesign to accomodate for the different Fitbit aspect ratios. I was thinking I'd make sure any improvements you've made (like bottom bar options) will make it into the Fitbit versions as well.

I will push my work in your repository. Before that I will revert all unwanted part for this merge.

For the configuration web page => Yes I am not an UX designer as you!

For the Fitbit part my main condition is the possibility to execute the watchface application without any Fitbit smartwatch.

Sounds good! Once you've pushed your changes I'll adjust the config page and do some tests to make sure the settings migrate.
