Witweather_android
This is a challenge assigned by Wit, which aimed to build an Android App to visualize the temperature in my current location, in this case (Maputo – MOZ) and in some suggested European cities (Lisbon, Madrid, Paris, Berlin, Copenhagen , Rome, London, Dublin, Prague and Vienna).
For the sake of distraction, I will have initially created the App in Flutter (Dart Language) and then migrated to Native Android (with Kotlin), as soon as I realized the request.
I was assigned the link (http://openweathermap.org/api), so that I could consume the data brought by the same API -> OPEN WEATHER MAP.
Below I present the built interface:
Getting Started
This project is a starting point for a Android/Kotlin application.
I present now, the packages I used during the construction of my code
A few resources to get you started if this is your first Flutter project:
- Bumptech Glide – A modern way to get images from source using imagesLibrary
- Jetpack Compose – Accompanist Coil – To Get Images from URL
- Android Parcelable – Used to send messages between components
- Android Retrofit – Used to make HTTP client requests
- Hilt – Hilt provides a standard way to incorporate Dagger dependency injection into an Android application.
- Android Navigation Compose – To manage routes navigation using NavController.
- Android Lifecycle – These components help you produce better-organized, and often lighter-weight code, that is easier to maintain.
Unsolved Bugs
During my developement process i stack on the following bugs:
- Show data on Composable Components
- Finish the Details City View
- Retrive data from Api response method
- Resolve route maps in “onClick action button”
Features
- Date / Time conversion
- Show Data on View Components
