TipCal is a tip calculator application for iOS.
Submitted by: Parijat Mazumdar
Time spent: 5 hours spent in total
The following required functionality is complete:
- [+] User can enter a bill amount, choose a tip percentage, and see the tip and total values.
- [+] Settings page to change the default tip percentage.
The following optional features are implemented:
- [+] UI animations
- [+] Remembering the bill amount across app restarts (if <10mins)
- [+] Using locale-specific currency and currency thousands separators.
- [+] Making sure the keyboard is always visible and the bill amount is always the first responder. This way the user doesn't have to tap anywhere to use this app. Just launch the app and start typing.
Here's a walkthrough of implemented user stories:

Describe any challenges encountered while building the app.
- Not knowing swift was an initial challenge. But using XCode reduces the need to know swift by a large extent.
