- markcerqueira 9y agoAre you guys based out of Bath, UK? Visited it this past summer and loved it! :)
- fractalwrench 9y agoOur main HQ is in San Fransisco, but we also have an office in Bath as both the founders went to university there (as did I). It's a really great city to see on a good Summer's day - the Roman Baths are well worth a visit.
- HillaryBriss 9y agothank you for an interesting/educational article! in the section named "Where we’re going, we don’t need IDEs" the sequence of commands creates a file named app.zip at one point: zip -r app app.zip but app.zip doesn't seem to be used later. am i missing something or should that be: zip -r app app-release-unsigned.apk
- fractalwrench 9y agoYep, that's a typo, thanks for letting me know.
- citrin_ru 9y agoIt is possible to get zip archive with slightly better compression rate using 7zip instead zip command: 7za a -tzip -mpass=15 -mfb=257 -ba -bd app.zip app
- cordite 9y agoWhere is the screenshot of the app at the end?
- dmitrybrant 9y agoBy the end, the app no longer has any Activities, so there's nothing to be shown on the screen. The exercise is simply to create the smallest possible (valid, installable) APK.
- guelo 9y agoI wish the requirement would have included a UI. I feel like that could have taken them in more interesting directions.
