iOS 7 Accessibility

Windows Phone 7 introduced a new "Metro" interface that focused on the end user experience. It featured a 1 GHz processor, multi-touch screen, sensors like accelerometers and GPS, and the ability to develop applications using Silverlight or XNA. The Windows Phone marketplace allowed developers to distribute apps and games through a centralized storefront. Overall, Windows Phone 7 marked a significant change from older Windows Mobile platforms and aimed to make the user interface and development experience more cohesive.

The document provides an overview and agenda for an Android development tutorial being given in Tokyo, Japan in October 2009. It introduces key Android concepts like Activities, Views, Intents, Services, and Notifications. It also outlines the development environment and tools needed, including Ubuntu, Eclipse, and the Android SDK. The document guides attendees through creating their first basic Android map application, including designing the UI, adding elements to the layout, and running the application.

Lars Vogel gives an overview of Android programming. Android uses the Java programming language but runs applications on the Dalvik virtual machine instead of the Java Virtual Machine. The main Android programming constructs are activities, views, intents, broadcast receivers, services, and content providers. Activities provide user interfaces, services run in the background, and broadcast receivers listen for system events.

While there are some common UI elements between Android and iOS apps, there are also many differences in how apps implement navigation, menus, and layouts on each operating system. Some key differences noted are Android apps following more modern "flat" and blocky designs, using left side menus for navigation more often, and having branding incorporated more prominently. The inconsistencies between platforms can sometimes cause confusion for users switching between Android and iOS devices.

The document provides instructions on how to use the Layar developer support environment. It explains that developers must log in with their Layar account to access full functionality and create topics. It outlines the various sections for searching forums, reporting bugs, requesting features, discussing topics, and asking private questions. Tips are provided throughout on making the most effective use of the support resources.

It also covered Xamarin as a recommended approach. The meetup discussed the full mobile app development lifecycle from planning to growth. It provided recaps of the introduction, overview, breakout sessions and next steps for future meetups.

This document provides information about developing mobile web applications that mimic native apps. It discusses techniques like using CSS for animations and transitions to improve performance, detecting standalone mode, adding home screen icons and startup images, and various HTML5 features supported in Mobile Safari like geolocation. It also covers frameworks like jQTouch, jQuery Mobile and Sencha Touch that make the mobile web feel more like native apps. Testing strategies are discussed, noting emulators are good for version testing but actual devices are best. Potential app ideas that could work as mobile web apps are listed, like games, calculators and productivity apps. Examples of successful mobile web apps developed with frameworks in just a few hours are highlighted.

My challenge for this year is to learn a new programming language or software development technology. While I don’t intend adopting the suggestion of The Pragmatic Programmer and learning one new language each year, I do think that there is much to be gained by seeing what else is out there. With the booming popularity of the Android platform for mobile devices I thought what better place to start? Over the past few weeks I have taken the first few steps in learning about Android application development.

My talk at Barcamp Bangalore 11 about "How to Make Your UI Look Good on Android". I talked about some really bad UI and how you can make avoid making those kind of UI and instead make more mobile and user friendly UI

The document describes a cross-platform mobile automation framework that allows testing mobile apps across different platforms like iOS, Android, and mobile web using a single automation code base. It proposes using common page objects to model pages of a mobile app, with elements defined using locator maps. The framework abstracts away differences in automation APIs and UI implementations using a driver abstraction. It also handles primary and secondary navigation patterns using menu and menu item page objects.

How talked about my happy days of graphic design, how I had thought everything had been about nice fonts and colors. I didn’t bother with testing. Now when I look back, I can see the path of destruction my carefree days have left. Here are 99 problems of graphic designer.

1) The NDRC adjusted the windfall tax threshold from $40/bbl to $55/bbl, effective November 1, 2011. This will benefit all three major Chinese energy companies, with PetroChina expected to benefit the most. 2) Sinopec is viewed as the biggest gainer from the tax changes on a net basis. The analyst reiterates a preference for Sinopec and CNOOC due to their attractive valuations. 3) Acquisition appetite from Chinese NOCs remains strong, as evidenced by recent deals, though spending has declined slightly from record levels in 2011. Strategies differ between focusing on unconventional versus conventional assets.

This presentation for the Accessibility Camp Bay Area introduces the new accessibility features of iOS7 and how they can be used for mobile developers. It also highlights key elements of the iOS 7.1 release that can affect accessibility. This is similar to a presentation I gave at Mobile+Web conference,http://www.slideshare.net/7mary4/ios7-accessibilitypdf, but doesn't need to introduce accessibility. The presentation is also meant to be more conversational.
