Notes

  • Deadlines are final! All groups share the same deadlines.
  • Ensure your last commit is made the day before the deadline!
  • A 25% penalty applies per calendar week for late submissions. For example, for a due date of November 10th:
    • - Last commit by November 11th, 00:00 (GMT+2) for full credit.
    • - After November 11th: 25% penalty.
    • - After November 18th: 50% penalty.
    • - After November 25th: 75% penalty.
    • - After December 2nd: 100% penalty.
    • - After December 9th: 125% penalty (0 points).
  • To receive a grade, present results to the lab instructor. Upload sources on GitHub, but simply submitting is not enough.
  • Learn to use Git and GitHub from your IDE (e.g., Android Studio, Xcode, Visual Studio Code).
  • The application must support CRUD operations on business objects. The main screen should list these objects and allow:
    • Create - Add new elements.
    • Read - Display elements in a list.
    • Update - Edit existing elements.
    • Delete - Remove elements.
  • The application should persist content locally for offline access, and synchronize with a remote server when online (server must be implemented by you; no server-less solutions allowed). Use REST for communication.
    • On update/delete while offline: persist the operation offline (should survive restarts). Once the server is back online apply the changes to the server and on device.
    • On read while offline: display local data with a note that the server is down.
    • On create while offline: save input locally and sync with the server when back online.

Final Grade

  • Laboratory Grade (LG) = Project Idea (2p) + UI-Only-Native (2p) + UI-Only-NonNative (2p) + DB (2p) + Server (2p).
  • Exam Grade (EG) - the grade from the practical exam.
  • Final Grade (FG) = (LG >= 4.5 && EG >= 5) ? (LG * 0.6 + EG * 0.4) : 0.
  • To take the practical exam, you must have at least 90% attendance in labs.
  • If LG < 4.5 or attendance criteria are not met, you can only attend the practical exam in the re-examination session.
