Android eLearning app #909

Build ODI eLearning android app

Technologies: HTML5 + Cordova + Android extensions

Cordova framework done for both iPhone and Android. The build scripts are all in the github. @davetaz have secured a mac mini which he will build as an iPhone build environment (maybe with @pezholio) and we can then try the android version. It requires a different build script to the iPhone version annoyingly. Tried outsourcing however they don’t support embedded video. We have a working APK build for Android, but it’s too big to go into the Play store. It needs the video splitting out into an extension file to fit it in there.

We wanted to outsource this to someone who knows Android, but we haven't had any luck finding a dev to do it yet.

I think I've got this working, so we don't need the Mac Mini - there's a PR here, but best to wait for @davetaz to check it over first

pezholio commented 8 years ago

I still can't get it to emulate in Android, but suspect this is because I'm missing something obvious

@pezholio reckon you'll be able to test Jez's changes and build the release version?
