Calling Java developers
Who do we have that knows Java or is willing to learn?

He's not being secretive, we are looking for someone to assist with mobile apps for Subsim.

Basicly, I have little insight into the limitations of development for android, but it seems that Java is the most used language, but if you are good in other stuff then fine. Android should be the only plan and at least one person have signed up for windows phone :-D My initial idea was to be able to access news and the forum in a more friendly way than just normal browsing. But I'm all open to ideas!

Sounds cool.
This is actually kind of perfect for me because I need to get reacquainted with Android. I haven't done any serious Android development since about a year ago when my company hired an Android developer and let me go back to my primary responsibilities (iOS). They sent him to Google's developer conference last year, but this year he is unable to go since he's having a child any day now and they're sending me. So I have to become familiar with Android again before I'm sitting through technical presentations on it in two weeks time. Is there any sort of rough mockups/ideas of what the app should look like and do? I can get a skeletal Android project going (maybe tonight?) and pushed up to whatever source control we plan on using. Github, or does anybody have something else in mind? PD |

I have installed the latest JDK, android sdk and eclipse. I have an idea to use tabs, but how do I best share my layout with you?

I would love for others to help. My time commitment will probably widely vary with work and life.
I have always used eclipse as well for android, I would think the main tool to align on would be source control? When you say share my layout, I assume you mean an xml Android layout? A source control tool would be the way to do that. Do you have one you would prefer? |

I have posted a thread on the software to use
I have also made a thread for the Android development, where theres a screenshot of the main xml i thought of. I have asked Neal to enable mobile versions of the news and the forums.

How do I link the layout with functionality? I mean, how do I set it up, so when you press a button in the layout, the default browser opens a url of your choice?

If you zip up the project I will put it up on a subsim bitbucket repo. I prefer git for source control, but mercurial is probably easier to use. PD |
