Updates On My First Kotlin Project

Updates On My First Kotlin Project

6/24/2020

 
By now, it's common knowledge that I have been working on writing a new Android app in Kotlin. However, that's about all I have revealed about this project. Fear not, as in this post, I'll be telling you a lot more about what I'm currently working on!
First of all, I have a confession to make. The main reason why I have been so vague on this project is that I've still been figuring out what I want this app to be. Even as I write this, I'm not completely sure how this app will turn out. However, I now have a basic idea of what I plan to do. This means that I can tell you a bit more about the app.

Essentially, this app is supposed to help you get motivated for the day. It's a place where you can go to get inspired. My goal is for it to be the perfect way to start your day.

Obviously, I'm not going to reveal the entire app in this post. I still have a lot of work to do. However, I do hope to release the app by mid-July. I know this seems sort of far out, but I'm really trying to make this app feel polished and well-made.

Anyway, that's about all for now. Stay tuned for more updates on this project!

What's in John's Backpack? (EDC)

I may no longer be a computer science major, but I'm still fascinated by electronics of all kinds. That's why I take great pleasure in writing about my "everyday carry," that being the devices that I regularly take along with me. These are often being swapped around, as I am an enthusiast at heart, but some of these have stuck around for a long time. So, here's the list: Phone: iPhone 15 Pro (128 GB) It's a very nice phone. That's about all I have to say about it. Like most people, I'm pretty apathetic toward iPhones. I prefer iOS for my needs, and it does what I need it to. 'Nuff said. Laptop: MacBook Pro 14" (2023, M3) I feel bad for my MacBook Pro. It gets tossed around in my bag, is constantly being used, and has a fair few battle scars. But it keeps on going. This laptop has gotten me through college thus far, and I'm hoping I won't have to replace it for a few more years. Watch: Apple Watch SE (the newest one) I swear that this i...

I love my Instax Mini SE. Here's why!

Hey, folks! I did it. I finally got into instant photography. And I love it. Admittedly, I've had some experience with instant photography before now. I got my first instant camera at a thrift store in 2022. It was a Polaroid OneStep from the 90s, and while film was still readily available for it, it was far too expensive to justify using it regularly. As cool as instant photography was, I accepted that it wasn't economically viable for me and moved on. ...Until about a month ago! On one of my first dates with my girlfriend, she introduced me to her Fujifilm Instax Mini 11. It was a much more compact and modern instant camera than my Polaroid. It also used smaller film slides. This was a big deal, as she informed me that the smaller film came at a smaller price. I was intrigued. A couple weeks later, I ventured to Walmart and splurged. I picked up the cheapest Instax they sold: The Mini SE. It only cost about $57, and it came bundled with 10 slides of film. I also picked up an ...
