Android Programming Task

In order to be considered for the Android position, please complete this task.

Note: This task should take no longer than 1-2 hours at the most.

Task

  1. Fork this repository (if you don't know how to do that, Google is your friend)
  2. Create a source folder to contain your code.
  3. In the source directory, please create an Android app that accomplishes the following:
    • Connect to the Github API
    • Find the android/platform_build repository
    • Find the most recent commits (choose at least 25 or more of the commits)
    • Create a RecyclerView that shows the recent commits by author
  4. Commit and Push your code to your new repository
  5. Send us a pull request (or if you prefer to keep it private, send us the files), we will review your code and get back to you

Optional extras

Extras are appreciated. Here's a small list of ideas:

  • Show avatar in the custom commit view
  • Implement tapping a commit to show more details in a new view
  • Load more commits when reaching the end of the list
