Project # 5

Spotify AB Feb 2017 – Mar 2018 Sunnyvale, CA

Android Developer and SDK Coder

App Description: Music application to play millions of songs, albums and original podcasts for free.

Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spotify.music

How did I add value:

•The app uses some shared JS between iOS, Android, and the Web environments to allow the users to share a similar reader experience on all platforms. The rest of it is a mixture of native code and interaction with the JS engines and shared C (for iOS and Android) to mimic the behavior of each mobile platform and appear the same.

•Code to make all the JS work together with the native code an Event Bus system is used to get responses from the WebViews and act on them in the native

•Made a persistent banner that presented itself on startup if there was a notification from the server to present or hide otherwise. Updated multiple views where it was needed to be displayed

•Added a concept navigation feature to the reading portion of the assignments. This was a list generated from the JS that was processed when the reader was launched. It started with a constant bar that stayed above the toolbar when it was present and had arrows when activated to navigate forward and backward. When clicking on it, it opened a RecyclerView in a BottomSheetDialog that presented the user with a complete list of the available concepts and scroll to the approximate location (spine item) they were in the book. Selecting one of the items would scroll the main reading experience to the location on the main screen and close the BottomSheet. Had to “glue” in the native C code that allowed the CFIs to be compared in the ePub format

•Implemented media credits into the probes to display below the images and audio media when they were available in the response

•Had to update the Swagger libs to gain access to the credits field to display

•Gave direction about using the “api” instead of “implementation” in the dependencies to allow them to be transitive in the libraries

•Add an additional tab to the main UI of the BottomNavigation, created a RecyclerView for it with a new API that was being implemented, created empty view for when there was no data and a view that allows displays what is being sent

•Add additional RecyclerView in fragment after that to display the list of assets that were contained to begin launching the experience

•Provide guidance on coroutine builders, why to avoid runBlocking{} outside of tests and how to use LiveData to post back even if in another dispatcher

•Move the MathJax webserver into the common library to share and added a Music server based on NanoHttp to serve JS into the WebViews

•Migrate serialization from Gson to Moshi
