Challenge Overview
Overview
The Hercules University application is a set of apps for iOS, Android, and the web, allowing users to watch live TV and On Demand videos on Universities.
This F2F challenge applies to the *Android* application.
We will be working quickly to re-implement the application natively.
Code
The new code will be here:
https://gitlab.com/team-autobots/OnCampus-Beta-Android/
The application will be based on native Java and will target API 19+ (Android 4.4+)
If you need code access, please request in the forum for the TopCoder F2F challenge with your Gitlab username. You will be given read-only access. Note that the challenge forum is *not* a public forum or the general development forum. It is the forum specifically associated with this F2F challenge.
If you receive a 404 error when hitting the Gitlab link, it means you do NOT have access. Please request access in the challenge forum. Within 24 hours you will receive an email from Gitlab that states you have access. This is NOT an automatic process - it is handled manually.
Please ask any questions in the TopCoder forum or on Gitlab. Either is appropriate.
UI
All screens will target portrait orientation on the phone, with the exception of the playback screen, which will allow for rotation All graphics added must have all proper versions applied. Here is a helpful tool: https://romannurik.github.io/AndroidAssetStudio/icons-generic.htmlDevice required
You will need a device to run the code for this project. The application relies on libraries that *only* work on devices. The simulator is not currently an option here.Submission
