General Overview:
As part of an assignment, we needed to come up with at least a hundred ideas surrounding software and what to make. This ranged from raising awareness to world-problems and things like teaching undocumented immigrants how to become a citizen in a select country to questionable things like a "stealing netflix accounts app" and a "sofia the first ripoff game". I came up with about twenty that I care about and can realistically achieve, \ some more achievable then others. My top three main ideas that I'd most likely do is Binary Conversion, an offline Music-Player app and a Quote Generator. Though there are still other things I'd like to do like a note-taking application designed for my specifications, a reminder app, a interactive scheduler, web development tutorials, a .swf updater etc.
Idea #1 Binary Conversion
While really serving no real intended purpose other then to convert Binary to Ten-base and vice versa, I wanted to do this since I struggled initially at thinking on approaching the problem when Binary Conversion was assigned to me. Now that I have learned Javascript and jQuery and overall gained a far better understanding/mastery over HTML and CSS. I was thinking of making a application that'd convert Binary to Tenbase and maybe Hex if I can. I already have an idea of how the code would look like but I just need to apply it. I thought this would be excellent in terms of getting personal with jQuery & Javascript. I know the two are basically the same but I wanted to mix 'em up together to get a more completed understanding of how both work and how well they translate if that makes any sense.
Idea #2 Offline Music-Player App
I never really liked any of the offline-music players available on the Play Store and there was always this one major turn-off of every music-player app I check out. Some have offline ads surprisingly, others have bad design, others lack proper functionality. Some can't edit the meta info of .mp3 files, etc. So I thought why not make my own? While I do already have an idea and layout of how it'd go down. I'm just not experienced enough for something this big, much less in like a week so while I likely won't do it for my upcoming assignment, it is something I want to do someday.
Idea #3 Quote Generator App
The most likely one that I'll do. Is simply using Javascript to call on arrays to write a quote on the screen that I am fond of in any way. Extremely basic and this was gonna tie in with my Home-One project that really is just this website in it's own way. It is the most practical, time-efficient and still taps into my knowledge of Javascript which, after completing a several lessons on solo, a language I really want to tap into. And make it "my own" and becoming extremely knowledgeable with Javascript as much or even more then I am with HTML.
