AmpMe is making sure everyone will have a happy and tasty meetup by sponsoring the pizza and beers. AmpMe is a music app that turns your phone into a portable speaker. You bring the party, we bring the noise! Play your music in perfect sync across multiple devices to create one powerful sound system. We’re on a mission to spread good times and good vibes, around the globe. Does this sound like something you want to be a part of? Join the party: www.ampme.com
AmpMe let you join music parties around you hosted by other AmpMe users on both iOS and Android. Finding nearby parties sound trivial for a user. But technically we had to face many problematics related to device models, android versions, offline versus online, and non-precise GPS locations. By the end of this talk, you will understand all the possibilities and complexities of each technologies integrated in the app.
I joined AmpMe in September 2015 as an Android developer with 0 background in Android development. I previously worked for Wajam and Spotr, where I learned really good development practices within a big data infrastructure environment.
You have a new feature in development and want to do some tests or collect data before the official release. But you don’t want to be dependant on App updates to enable the feature. You also want a master switch to shut it down without publishing a new App in the store, just in case. You may also want to tweak some parameters or rules on the fly, or a sandbox for internal testing. Of course you want to apply that on both iOS and Android, but somewhat be independant. Then you may want to test it with a few users first, or activate it upon some conditions. We will learn how to do that with Firebase remote-config.

They bring a whole new range of possibilities when it comes to animation that can delight your users in many ways. In this talk we’re gonna go through what we can do to animate our vector drawables, how to implement them and support them in a wide range of android versions. We’re gonna take a look at how we can do animations with path data as well as trimPath, how to choreograph them to achieve your desired animation. Finally, I’m gonna show how we can play with Vectors on sketch without being a rockstar design so we can create the vectors we need to achieve our animations. I’m gonna show how we can get a SVG from google’s material design website and easily change it in Sketch to achieve a very animations using the concepts presented at the beginning.
