Basic Android application based on sample code from the Freelancer Hackathon

Primary LanguageJava

Freelancer API Hackathon Android Application

Base code was provided by Freelancer for their API Hackathon. Original project was broken and required some additional work.

The original application fetched a list of recommended Freelancer projects for your account. The new application allows you to swipe these projects left or right into one of two 'piles'; 'interested' or 'not interested'. Projects can be demoted or promoted from these piles.

The goal was to allow a user to gradually filter down a list of projects they are interested in with minimal friction, and without concern of losing track of projects- if they swipe away a project, they can still browse through the 'not interested' list and reconsider them before clearing the list and deleting them.
