 By Austin Evans     Well, that's it..... no more milestones, no more team meeting, and sadly no more blogs. This is the last one for this project and to kick it off with the norm, here is what I work on this past week. Getting ready for the post mortem. What is a post mortem? Well its a show case at the end of  the month were the teams that works on the project get to show off the 4 to 5 months worth of work. In this post mortem we make a PowerPoint about the app and how to work. It was nice to have the project finished and show it off to the other teams. When I was going to the other post mortems in the past months, I keeped thinking about how our post mortem was going to go. But atlast the day has come and we have shown the work we have done.     I'm thankful for my teammates on helping me by giving my tips and tricks along the way in the 5 month project. I didn't really have the best knowledge in Android Studio and Java but through time of research and ...

 By Austin Evans     Well, that's it... the end of development. At least for me, what is left to do is a few bug fixes. This past week, I worked on having an X button in the top right-hand corner of our pop-up windows. I was also tasked with getting the PowerPoint started and ready for the post mortem we have at the end of the class.     But right now I figured on talking about the X button for starters since it was the last thing I worked on in code. Since the pop windows were dialog boxes that could be edited. Although I couldn't figure out how to get x in the corner so I went a made it in the XML file. I hide the X until the dialog window shows up in the app, but that was looking good. So I reached out to the team for help and we figured it out together and came to the condulsion of getting rid of the title bar and editing the XML file to fit the way we want it.     Finally I worked on the PowerPoint for the post mortem. There not much to talk about...

 By Austin Evans     This past week hasn't been the best week. I was tasked to get the imported file to show up on the routines page but to no luck. Since we are two weeks away from having the app finished, we had to think up another solution. So my teammate came up with saving the file as a binary file and not a CSV file. Since we are not saving the total amount of data to the CSV file, having it load in causes problems. Like not having the exercises show up.      Another thing that was a bust was to import a file from another app. Going with the app called WorkIt that my teammate suggested the file is saved additional information like date, cardio, and some other information. But since we have the additional data pulling in the file causes a NULL error toast. But to get around this problem we decided to scrap the idea for now and return to the issue at a later date.     However, not everything that was done this past week was a bust. I was able ...
