parstagram's Issues

Project Feedback!

๐Ÿ‘ Looks good overall!

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.

I have provided a detailed Project 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 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.

If you have any particular questions about the assignment in general or on any of the feedback, feel free to reply here or post on the discussion forum.

Keep in mind that one of the most important parts of Android development is learning the correct patterns and conventions.

I would encourage you to also spend more time in future assignments improving the UI / UX as well by reviewing examples of good UI design.
