Progress Reports

Week 7:

• Implemented preliminary app UI/navigation design in XML
• Read through Android API's Bluetooth docs

Week 8:

• Switched UI navigation to use fragments rather than activities
• Designed interactive text entry field with stateful autocomplete for available commands
• Created scrollable text output window for command outputs

Week 9:

• Started work on Bluetooth backend
• Fully functional launch screen with list of paired devices
• Started work on modular command parser that should work transparently for both interactive text entry and snippets (batches)
• Encountered thread synchronization problem with asynchronous command evaluation

Week 10:

• Got HID profile (sort of?) working. Still unreliable
• Finished/stabilized interactive prompt
• Began work on snippets functionality to allow user to edit, save, and execute sequences of multiple commands on a target device

Week 11 (finals week):

• Discovered that HID profile support is incredibly buggy on non-Google devices (including mine)
• Finished snippets implementation
• Scrambled to figure out what to do to make the app actually do something useful
