Ergosphere
Final Presentation
The Idea
- Ergosophere is a study application on iOS
- Integrates Jawbone UP 24 live syncing technology to track idle time - push notifications to study
- Uses learning strategies to reinforce info
- Creates fun study sessions that are space-themed, flat UI design
- A very tiny piece of what actually works [Demo]
- There is so much more behind the scenes
- API [Demo]
These are not the [requirements] you are looking for.
- iOS core data? No.
- Storing data locally or in two places will not cut it
- Online server / database as single source of storage & syncing
- L(inux) A(pache) M(ySql) P(HP)
- API is important!
If we build, WE will learn.
- Big infrastrucutre - not just an iOS app
- Server - phones don't magically receive data
- APIs should be viewed as important as 50% of the entire solution
- Objective-C, xCode and iOS
- Design the interface
- Tightly integrate code
- Create universal iPhone & iPad app
- We are humans. Student humans.
What we did right
- Found resources
- Code School - Try iOS & Objective-C
- App Conda tutorials
- Leveraged our strenghts - two sides of the same coin
- Researched ahead of time - we're in this for the long haul
- Had patience - you need lots of it - be patient and celebrate the small wins.
- Be courageous
Final Words
We'll be back. Give us a year, we're not giving up.
