Link Kotlin codes to appropriate frameworks #11

Closed andrewtavis closed 2 years ago

andrewtavis commented 2 years ago

After the conversion of codes from Scribe-iOS is completed in #10, the next task is to get everything linked to appropriate Android frameworks. The codes translated from Swift will by no means be workable as they're based on UIKit, which cannot itself be fully translated. These will instead serve as guides for what needs to be included in the conversion.

As discussed in #9, comparing iOS and Android keyboard extensions will be important going forward. This should allow the translated code to be linked to appropriate frameworks, although rewriting it will doubtless be necessary to a non-trivial degree.

First this issue will deal with formatting comments, docstrings and general code spacing. After that documentation of what Kotlin frameworks match the ones used in Swift should follow. Finally comparing keyboard apps for Android and iOS will allow for the conversion to fully get under way.

The above commits have finished the needed formatting. The next step are:

[x] Define all frameworks used in Scribe iOS and then find their Kotlin equivalents
- Will be done later if needed
[x] Exploring and setting up the base Android project structure using projects in #9
- Moved to #12
[x] Converting over the shape files used for keyboard and app layouts
- Moved to #12
[x] Step by step conversions of Swift/iOS frameworks
- Will be made into separate issues later

Separate issues will be made for command conversions later, so this issue will be closed :)
