    For the May meetup, Android Developer, Roger O'Dell will discuss Supporting Multiple Android Devices - Part 2. In this discussion he will have a brief presentation, and the rest will be demo based. Part 2 of this 2 part series will focus on devices from Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) forward. This demo will be similar in scope than Part 1. It will be a Master/Detail application that will utilize the compatibility library. Just like Part 1, the demo will contain Fragments. What makes this demo different will be the use of the Action Bar Compat to give the older devices the same look and feel of a modern applications. Instead of using JSON data like Part 1, this application will use a SQLite database. This application will be built using Eclipse and will be hosted on Github. At a later time, an Android Studio version will also be completed and added to Github. To add some additional complexity, the data will be completely different and include some high res images instead of simple images.
    Folks, we have limited seating at this location, so if you are planning not to attend please update your RSVPs as soon as you can so that wait listed members can plan ahead. Also, if you are on the wait list, please reach out to me, and we can set up extra seating.

  • Open to anyone in the area who is interested in developing video games. In order to have a little structure, we'll try to do a couple things each week:
    • Introduce new members. What have you worked on, game related or not? What do you want to work on next?
    • Discuss this week's conversation starter. Some article, video or game that we can dig into a little.
    • Members can present any games they're working on, for feedback or just to brag.
    Of course, it's all very informal. The main goal is interesting conversation(s) about our passion.
    Looking forward to it!
