Just built a brain trainer app

Mostly a recording for my own use while I take on https://www.udemy.com/course/the-complete-android-oreo-developer-course/learn/lecture/8339458#content

Alt Text

Summary of learnings:

  • lombok is useful, easy to use for android
  • adding dependencies to projects is done via build.gradle
  • Having a different activity allow users to use the "back" button as part of interactions.
  • may start learning how to unit tests some of these things, getting a bit complex and need to catch bugs.

Some notes:

  • Might be a good idea to get a google play account so I can send the app to other people to sue
  • Could implement difficulty level + highest score

Time taken:

  • About 3 hours
  • Trying to build a grid using Relative Layouts is a bit of a pain
    • Might want to use fragments or some other programmatic way to do this. Might just use GridView since it's convenient.
