End Of the Semester

Posted on December 9, 2012 by jamescelona

For Jon and I this is the end of the road for undergrad.  This Android project was a great way to end it.  All three of us want to continue to work on the app after school ends, we still have plans for it.   I’ve learned quite a bit over the course of the semester, […]

QA Testing

Posted on November 27, 2012 by jamescelona

The release candidate is ready to go and so starts the crazy amount of bug testing we will need to do.  We need to assure we check all the edge cases and all the scenarios in which the user could break our app.  It reminds me of the last time working before a Mahadev assignment is due and checking […]

Great Meeting the Other day

Posted on November 3, 2012 by jamescelona

Synergy! haha, Jon Dhimitri and I met up on Thursday to discuss the final process in the app.  I figured since Dhimitri has that little netbook that he can’t do much with that I would bring a VGA cable to the library and set my laptop up on the big screen.  I’ll remember not to […]

First Meet With Dhimitri

Posted on September 11, 2012 by jamescelona

Jon, Dhimitri and I had a meeting today to catch Dhimitri up on what we have been doing and the plan for the next few months.  We met in the library and discussed how to set up Action Bar Sherlock and demo’d the app again.  We plan on following the style guide very thoroughly so the […]

Working on a facelift

Posted on September 11, 2012 by jamescelona

Howdy all, Jon and I aren’t graphic designers, actually I just ran into this problem at work,  and it’s pretty obvious this app isn’t going to be the prettiest bell at the ball.  Whatever, form follows function.  Right now I’m working on making the ‘create activity’ section contain everything we’re going to need Calendar style […]

Catching Up on GIT

Posted on September 11, 2012 by jamescelona

Howdy all, Luckily Jon and I have been working internships all summer using some sort of variation of a Version Control System.  I guess I didn’t learn as much as I thought in 401 for GIT as I really needed.  My git-foo has improved significantly (Jon’s is still way above mine, though. )  Right now […]

Whoops.

Posted on September 11, 2012 by jamescelona

(This blog post is a few weeks old and never was posted), I’ve been pecking away at the app, though.  Jon built a great foundation for our app and it’s time to get cracking and finish this bad boy.  Right now I’m playing catchup on all the documentation for Android (big thanks to Jon for […]

My First App

Posted on June 23, 2012 by jamescelona

I never mentioned in my previous post that I have been watching www.thenewboston.org ‘s video series throughout the past few weeks.  He’s a young guy and it’s kind of funny learning from him sometimes, weird little things bother me sometimes, I’m weird, it’s weird.  But! I wrote my first app, you can push a button […]

First Week install/configure

Posted on June 23, 2012 by jamescelona

It’s been a slow start to the project, nice weather tends to do that to me.  I manged to find a great video series about Android development that really starts from the ground up.  Actually, it’s kind of boring at times when he begins to talk about what’s going on in the Java code he’s […]
