Nanodegree- Project 0: My App Portfolio This app will show my future projects by clicking on the respective button.
##API key
- Add your key to the app/build.gradle (variable defined there).
##Stage 1 The core experiences of this app are --
- Upon launch, presents the user with an grid arrangement of movie posters.
- Allows user to change sort order via a setting.
- The sort order can be by most popular, or by top rated.
- Allows the user to tap on a movie poster and transition to a details screen with additional information such as:
- Original title
- Movie poster image thumbnail
- A plot synopsis (called overview in the api)
- User rating (called vote_average in the api)
- Release date
New features added to the core experiences of this app are --
- Allowed users to view and play trailers ( either in the youtube app or a web browser).
- Allowed users to read reviews of a selected movie.
- Also allowed users to mark a movie as a favorite in the details view by tapping a button(star). This is for a local movies collection that you will maintain and does not require an API request*.
- Modified the existing sorting criteria for the main view to include an additional pivot to show their favorites collection.
- Optimized your app experience for tablet.

Stock Hawk app for Udacity Nanodegree.
Stock Hawk gives you an opportunity to diagnose problems and practice improving apps. These skills are vital to building apps users will love.
Diagnosing issues with existing apps is key to working on large apps or continuing projects in Android. Being aware of the common pitfalls in app design frees a developer to produce novel app experiences without making the same mistakes over and over.
- Diagnosed existing issues with app.
- Accessible to sight-impaired users.
- Localized for distribution in other countries.
- Handled error cases in Android.
- A widget suppoort for best app experience.
- Line graph charting for stock data.
In this project, you will create an app with multiple flavors that uses multiple libraries and Google Could Endpoints. The finished app will consist of four modules. A Java library that provides jokes, a Google Could Endpoints (GCE) project that serves those jokes, an Android Library containing an activity for displaying jokes, and an Android app that fetches jokes from the GCE module and passes them to the Android Library for display.
As Android projects grow in complexity, it becomes necessary to customize the behavior of the Gradle build tool, allowing automation of repetitive tasks. Particularly, factoring functionality into libraries and creating product flavors allow for much bigger projects with minimal added complexity.
##What Will I Learn?
You will learn the role of Gradle in building Android Apps and how to use Gradle to manage apps of increasing complexity. You'll learn to:
- Add free and paid flavors to an app, and set up your build to share code between them
- Factor reusable functionality into a Java library
- Factor reusable Android functionality into an Android library
- Configure a multi project build to compile your libraries and app
- Use the Gradle App Engine plugin to deploy a backend
- Configure an integration test suite that runs against the local App Engine development server
##How Do I Complete this Project?
This is the starting point for the final project, which is provided to you in the course repository. It contains an activity with a banner ad and a button that purports to tell a joke, but actually just complains. The banner ad was set up following the instructions here:
https://developers.google.com/mobile-ads-sdk/docs/admob/android/quick-start
You may need to download the Google Repository from the Extras section of the Android SDK Manager.
When you can build an deploy this starter code to an emulator, you're ready to move on.
Your first task is to create a Java library that provides jokes. Create a new Gradle Java project either using the Android Studio wizard, or by hand. Then introduce a project dependency between your app and the new Java Library. If you need review, check out demo 4.01 from the course code.
Make the button display a toast showing a joke retrieved from your Java joke telling library.
Create an Android Library containing an Activity that will display a joke passed to it as an intent extra. Wire up project dependencies so that the button can now pass the joke from the Java Library to the Android Library.
For review on how to create an Android library, check out demo 4.03. For a refresher on intent extras, check out;
http://developer.android.com/guide/components/intents-filters.html
This next task will be pretty tricky. Instead of pulling jokes directly from our Java library, we'll set up a Google Cloud Endpoints development server, and pull our jokes from there. Follow the instructions in the following tutorial to add a Google Could Endpoints module to your project:
https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/gradle-appengine-templates/tree/master/HelloEndpoints
Introduce a project dependency between your Java library and your GCE module, and modify the GCE starter code to pull jokes from your Java library. Create an Async task to retrieve jokes. Make the button kick off a task to retrieve a joke, then launch the activity from your Android Library to display it.
Add code to test that your Async task successfully retrieves a non-empty string. For a refresher on setting up Android tests, check out demo 4.09.
Add free and paid product flavors to your app. Remove the ad (and any dependencies you can) from the paid flavor.
- Project contains a Java library for supplying jokes
- Project contains an Android library with an activity that displays jokes passed to it as intent extras.
- Project contains a Google Cloud Endpoints module that supplies jokes from the Java library. Project loads jokes from GCE module via an async task.
- Project contains connected tests to verify that the async task is indeed loading jokes.
- Project contains paid/free flavors. The paid flavor has no ads, and no unnecessary dependencies.
- App retrieves jokes from Google Cloud Endpoints module and displays them via an Activity from the Android Library.

- In "Advanced features section", click on your apps.
- In "Build your own app" section , create a new Application by filling required details, after this API key will be generated.
- Put your "Consumer Key" and "Consumer Secret" in app/build.gradle at specified place.
- Now, you are ready to explore.
- Open app and login to splitwise account.
- Add some friends by menu options.

- All friend can see their real time balance and all expenses in any group and friend view.
Here is my Capstone Stage-1- Design repo.
###The following required functionality is completed:
- User can manage expenses.
- User can manage friends.
- User can manage expense groups.
- User can calculate interest.
- User validated through oAuth.
- App uses third party APIs to save its data on server.
- Multiple user share same real time data for better user experience and data persistency.
