The main feature of the app is to provide a conversational interface to provide intelligent answers using the loklak/AskSusi infrastructure. The app also offers login functionalities to connect to other services and stored personal data. Additionally the application uses data provided by the user's phone to improve Susi answers. Geolocation information for example helps to offer better answers related to questions about "things nearby".
First steps are to implement the basic chat functionalities of Susi.

A native Android app.
Note: For the initialization period all commits go directly to the master branch. In the next stages we follow the branch policy as below:
We have the following branches
- development All development goes on in this branch. If you're making a contribution, you are supposed to make a pull request to development. PRs to gh-pages must pass a build check and a unit-test check on Travis
- master This contains shipped code. After significant features/bugfixes are accumulated on development, we make a version update, and make a release.
##For Developers: Adding Fabric API KEY
-
Go to AndroidFest.xml Replace the fabric_api_key with the Real Fabric API Key Add:
-
Open the app/fabric.properties: Replace the fabric_api_key with your actual Fabric API Secret.
-
Open MainApplication.java, a) After adding the API KEYS and API Secret Uncomment the line: Fabric.with(this, new Crashlytics())
b) Add imports : import com.crashlytics.android.Crashlytics; import io.fabric.sdk.android.Fabric;
-
Uncomment the line in the app/gradle Line: apply plugin: 'io.fabric'
Please help us follow the best practice to make it easy for the reviewer as well as the contributor. We want to focus on the code quality more than on managing pull request ethics.
- Single commit per pull request
- Reference the issue numbers in the commit message. Follow the pattern
Fixes #<issue number> <commit message>
- Follow uniform design practices. The design language must be consistent throughout the app.
- The pull request will not get merged until and unless the commits are squashed. In case there are multiple commits on the PR, the commit author needs to squash them and not the maintainers cherrypicking and merging squashes.
- If the PR is related to any front end change, please attach relevant screenshots in the pull request description.
