The Hackers Diet application for Windows Phone

This application is (for the time being) a proof-of-concept application that uses concepts from The Hacker's Diet to explore web services provided by the Parse platform.

There's still a lot to do. My goal is for the application to eventually explore the followin APIs ...

Objects

  • Create objects (done)
  • Retrive objects (done)
  • Update objects (done)
  • Query objects (done)
  • Delete objects (done)

Users

  • Sign-up users
  • Login users

Roles

  • Retrieving roles (e.g. lookup if user is an admin)

Files

  • Upload file (e.g. take a picture and upload it)

No guarantees how much I'll do here.

Using this project

Just a few notes:

  1. I have forked https://github.com/karlseguin/parse-dotnet and set it up as an external remote for the Windows Phone application.

  2. Newtonsoft.Json.dll is used for parsing the JSON objects. The assembly is in \resources\windowsphone.

  3. Obviously you'll need the latest version of the Windows Phone SDK 7.1.
