What I did:
I was slightly burned out by the challenge. I continued to develop a mobile client for the Dev.to, but I didn't have the motivation to write daily reports. Sometimes this happened because I had made only a little progress. At other times, I would just investigate possible solutions without coding. I will describe my progress over the last few days.
I spent part of the time investigating cross-platform solutions to display web content or Markdown text. I didn't find a suitable solution; problems kept appearing each time. So, I decided to put this investigation on hold. As a result, the content on the iOS side looks outdated.
Another part involved updating the collapsing toolbar to handle back navigation and display the related icon. Then I worked on the logic for applying an application theme that matches the phone's theme. Since this is platform-specific functionality, I implemented it separately for each platform, which wasn't simple, especially on iOS. Additionally, I implemented logic to update the theme when it changes in the system settings on the phone. I also plan to add a theme switcher in the settings screen to allow manual selection. I stopped at this point, and I will continue with this tomorrow. This is not critical functionality, but I want to complete this part because it's a very interesting topic to cover in a separate article.
That's all my progress for the last several days. I will try to keep the status updated regularly, as I did previously.
What I will do:
- Update README file with description of project.
- Fix comment element
- Implementation of WebView to display stub content
- Theme configuration for Lottie animation
- Create public collection of API calls in Postman
