Challenge Overview
Introduction
Welcome to the Data Booklet Mobile App - Fix Cordova Links and Splash Screen challenge. This is a F2F challenge to fix a blank splash screen issue and update banners to link within app.
Project Overview
Our client has built out a cross-platform mobile application to replace a PDF reference guide for industrial gases and cryogenic fluids. Salesmen will be able to better discuss products with customers through this application, showing measurements, calculations, and conversions interactively. Customers will also be able to use the app as a quick reference guide while at work or in the field.
The Data Booklet Mobile App is currently built using Cordova, with an AngularJS front-end and .NET and SQL back end accessed through REST APIs. We are currently supporting both iOS and Android builds for the app.
Challenge Overview
Our main goal for this First2Finish challenge is to fix a disappearing splash screen and allow banners to redirect within the app. We’d like you to:
-
Fix splash screen from transitioning to blank white screen
-
Update banners to be able to link within app
-
Crop banners instead of stretching.
After you register for the challenge, you will find an attachment explaining the issue in detail. We can provide further details and clarifications in the forums.
