GreenSpace - The GreenSpace project interests me because of my interest in environmentalism. I am pretty passionate about climate change and environmentalism, so being able to work with a company that directly deals with these issues would be great. I have always been a politically driven person since becoming an adult, and working on a project like this sounds like a great way to finally put my programming experience to use with a project and company that interests me. The project itself also sounds interesting to me. Creating a scheduling application for landscapers definitely would be an improvement compared to now where no application exists to streamline their services. For the project, the GreenSpace spokesperson said they are open to the technologies used for this application. Because of this we will be able to choose technologies and languages that I have experience in, such as Java or Python. Time tracking, job costing, and scheduling all seem like tasks that I can help accomplish, which is why this project is my number 1 choice.
Web Apps to Support Community Enablement - This project interests me for similar reasons to the GreenSpace project. I am a politically driven person, so working on a project that directly deals with the issues I advocate for, such as addressing the digital divide, makes me excited. Having a positive impact on people's lives, such as high school kids in the Hill District, would be a great experience for me during this class. For the project, building a mobile application seems like a challenge I can handle. While I have never actually created a mobile app, I feel like I have the necessary Java experience to learn how to work on one. I have also already taken a web development course, so I already have experience creating websites and hopefully some of this experience would translate to creating web based mobile apps.
Visimo - The Visimo project also interests me. The project itself sounds very interesting, such as with the group creating a "progressive web app", which is able to perform much of the functionality of a native mobile app while still running through the browser as a traditional web app and not requiring any downloads or installs from the app store. I feel like this is a project that I could excel in due to my experience with software QA. This project will most likely require a large amount of testing, which I have experience in doing.
Activity Recognition Data Collection Smartphone Application - This project interests me due to the project topic. Creating a training app that uses activity data collected from the phone sounds very interesting to me. I've always had some interests in how apps interact with certain hardware features in phone nowadays, such as tracking step count, calories burned, etc. This project will require the creation of a mobile application, which I feel I could learn how to develop using my Java background, and writing test cases which I also have experience with in software quality assurance.
