Project Feedback
๐ decent work. A few notes after checking out the code:
- Nice to see you playing around with
RelativeLayout
.RelativeLayout
is one of the most powerful responsive-first layout systems available across web and mobile platforms and provides better control in comparison to a linear layout. - Nice job using the ViewHolder pattern to improve performance of photos
ListView
. - Consider adding pull to refresh for the photos ListView using the SwipeRefreshLayout
- Nice work on using a placeholder graphic during loading.
- Try out the YouTubePlayerView in the future.
- Consider using the ButterKnife library annotations for declaring handles to view objects.
- Consider showing an appropriate message to user, on errors such as a network call failure, via a Toast.
- Consider following the folder structure and naming conventions defined in https://guides.codepath.com/android/Organizing-your-Source-Files
- Consider creating separate class for API client.
One of the most important part of these projects is that you add additional features and tweak the UI / UX because that will provide many more learning opportunities. I would encourage you to complete the projects each week with required stories early and then spend time adding your own UI elements and experimenting with optional extensions that will improve the user experience.
We have provided a detailed Project 1 Feedback Guide here which covers the most common points we see for this project. Read through the feedback guide point-by-point to determine other ways you could improve your submission. You should consider going back and implementing applicable feedback as well. Keep in mind that one of the most important parts of Android development is learning the correct patterns and conventions.
Hopefully this first project has given you a better sense of working with RelativeLayout which is a very flexible layout system, probably one of the most powerful responsive-first layout systems available across web and mobile platforms. This assignment also gave us our first introduction to networking, working with APIs and loading remote images. The next assignment will introduce new concept such as accepting user input and navigating between activities but will also reinforce important concepts such as networking, using APIs, handling remote images.
If you have any particular questions about the assignment in general or on any of the feedback, feel free to reply here or or email us [email protected].
P.S. Good to see you properly added the README with features and screenshots to your project as described in the submitting assignments guide!
Required feature missing
@oec08 from your code, it seems you haven't implemented ViewHolder pattern, even though you have checked it to be complete in README. It is a required feature.
It is important you complete all required features. Please implement the ViewHolder pattern and resubmit.
