Hello All,
I am new to android and to AF also ( I do have experience of working in .NET though so have a bit of idea about coding )
Now, I have to develop an app for a restaurant. Its a simple app which will show food items in different categories to the users. Users will then shortlist the items they want to order and then place an order for home delivery. There is no payment involved as it is going to be cash on delivery system.
Progress so far :
1) Have created a splash screen
2) Have checked if the database has been created or not on splash screen, if its not there then it creates a new database.
3) It goes to the New Activity ( Category ) where I would like to show all the categories to the user for e.g. Pizzas, Burgers, Sandwiches etc.
1) I need your guidance on which controls should I use to show the Categories, Ideally an image of the category and name should be sufficient, they click on it and goes to the items activity.
2) How to show the images ? I have given them a web based interface on their website from where they manage their categories/ items/ images of items, prices etc. Should I include all the images in the android package or should I dynamically get these images from web and then show it to the user ?
Any other suggestion would be helpful. like maintaining the cart etc. or if my approach is wrong then also please help me out.
Thanks
