I am going to spend at least 30 minutes a week coding Android so I keep at least some of my transferable coding skills. I'm hoping to have a really basic but functional app done by the end of March. probably an alarm clock or something. anything more ambitious and i definitely will not do it

Week 1) Spent most of the time setting up Android environment. Added a widget for selecting and displaying time. I forgot how all this works.

Week 2) Worked on setting up two activities. I have the first screen for setting the alarm and other info, and another to display the time and a message when the alarm is active.

Week 3) Spent most of my time reading old notes about mobile development. Made some adjustments to the layout.

Week 4) Added an alarm manager that should hopefully trigger a response when the calendar time matches the user-set time.

Week 5) Read more about design practices.

Week 6) Did a bit more work and put the app on git so I don't lose it

Week 7) Bashed my head against Gradle config errors for a couple hours. May end up just copying the existing code into a new project so I don't have to spend more time trying to figure out why I can't build my project
