Friday 23rd June - Week 16

By

 As I am still having trouble connecting the WillyWeather API to retrieve the data, today I worked on the UI screens and getting the design up and running so they are ready for the code. I worked on the LIST page today where I implemented an expand and collapse feature to view the details of each location. I have made arrays for the name of location, hours to location and klms to location - the next step is to connect the API to these arrays so they display the correct information. I also used a rotate function so when the expand button is clicked, it rotates 180 degrees so it is ready to be collapsed.

Friday 11th August - Week 23

This week, my main focus was to organise and refine my screens to make sure there was a smooth transition between them. To enhance user experience, I brought in a navigation controller to the settings section, which provides a convenient back button for each subview. In fine detail, I scanned over all of the contraints within each UI view controller to ensure there were no significant issues.  It was during this week that I came to the realisation that I may not have enough time to implement to FIND SWELL feature. This feature is the exact same to the FIND SUN feature but instead of sun, we are searching for good waves. As a result of time management, I decided to remove the prepared view controllers and code that I had set up for starting this section.

This week I have managed to reach a few more milestones. I focused on creating e a new page of the app which allows the user to view the search results in a map view for convenience. I decided to create this page separately from the homepage map as it needed to display extra information including the search fields at the bottom of the screen alongside a "back" button to take the user back to the list of results. (still need to implement the back button) I also attempted to have the tab bar viewed to every screen but I am finding it difficult to find out why it disappears after the SunSearchViewController.

Today in class I finished the decision matrix for technology requirements. Here I used my existing knowledge from my research to create the matrix in an accurate manner. Using this knowledge, I also had more of an understanding about the system architecture for my application so I started to hand draw the diagram of the system architecture. Furthermore, as we are taking part in a practice presentation next week, I began to design the slides for my presentation, taking into consideration the concept, theme and branding of my application SPOTTER.
