twitterclient's Issues

Project 4 Feedback

๐Ÿ‘ Great work. A few notes after checking out the code:

  • Nice to see you used a drawable and/or styles to customize the view
  • Great effort on UI polish. Looks neat.
  • Glad to see you properly hooked up each of the different timelines to infinitely paginate.
  • Good to see you properly communicated the user to the user timeline fragment from the profile activity.
  • Nice to see you used the ViewPager to properly setup the tabs
  • Architecting the fragments (base class and extension classes) should be done such that you put as much code and logic as possible in the base class and then use abstract methods to define only the specific behavior where they differ. You are on the right track but still have some code duplication which can be moved to base fragment

Here's a detailed Project 4 Feedback Guide here which covers the most common issues with this submitted project. Read through the feedback guide point-by-point to determine how you might be able to improve your submission.

This week (Week 5), we are going to cover the last major piece to the Android puzzle and that is using the hardware and SDK components such as the camera, photo gallery, location, maps, etc. After that, Week 6 and week 7 we will be covering a few important intermediate topics such as more about styling and animation as well as testing.

Following the bootcamp, we are going to have a public demo day to celebrate the progress you've all made with our next batch of Android students and multiple companies attending to see the group projects that you all have built. We are going to help however we can over the next few weeks to get the team project apps in shape for that.

Project Feedback!

๐Ÿ‘ Great work. A few notes after checking out the code:

  • Neat & Polished UI
  • Good to see you were able to format the timestamp cleanly in short format
  • Nice to see you used the SwipeRefreshLayout for easy timeline refreshes
  • Good job on getting the new tweet displayed on timeline
  • Nice touch with the character count being displayed while the user composes a tweet
  • Glad to see you made the compose activity into a dialog instead
  • Good job using RecyclerView instead of ListView
  • Consider adding progress bars to your app whenever a network request goes out

Let us know if you have any other thoughts or questions about this assignment. Hopefully by now you feel pretty comfortable with all the major pieces to basic Android apps (Views, Controllers, ActionBar, Navigation, Models, Authentication, API Communication, Persistence, et al) and see how they all fit together. We are close now to a turning point in the course where you should be hitting a "critical mass" towards your knowledge of Android.
