Scala Meetup on Android

The repo to drive the Scala Meetup on Android.

To make this work you need to ...

install git, sbt (using macports or brew) and the Android SDK
you can then clone this repo and checkout the various tags/steps to walk through the tutorial

Step 0: Get something to compile

create an empty directory and in this directory create a directory called project
put the android.sbt file into this directory and run sbt "gen-android android-21 scala.meetup TutorialApp"
take a look at the files to understand what was generated
create an avd and start an emulator
run sbt android:run and you should see the MainActivity get started

delete project/build.scala and add a build.sbt file
you can then also delete project.properties (one file less to worry about)
delete src/androidTest and create src/main/scala and move src/main/java/.../MainActivity.java to src/main/scala/MainActivity.scala (and rename it to a scala file in the process) and delete src/main/java
edit MainActivity.scala and port it to Scala
add hello_text in src/main/res/values/strings.xml and reference it in src/main/res/layout/main.xml
(optional - if you want to use EMACS/ensime) put the ensime.sbt file into the project directory and run sbt gen-ensime
run sbt android:run again and you should see the MainActivity to display the changed hello world text

add the macroid dependencies to the build.sbt file (and/or check the macroid-starter repo for the most current version of a/the build.sbt file)
edit AndroidManifest.xml to include min/targetSdkVersion
edit MainActivity.scala to show two buttons and the text (and edit strings.xml accordingly)
delete src/main/res/layout (this is not needed anymore)
run sbt android:run again and you should see the MainActivity to display two buttons. Try them ...
