Treehouse TeacherAndroid Weather App QA
Hey Android students!
The next Android course, Build a Weather App, is nearly ready! I will publish it in a few days, but I'd love to have some students work through it in the next day or two to make sure everything is in order.
Reply in this thread if you are interested. I'll pick a few people and send an email later today about what to do next.
If you get picked, please don't discuss the course in this thread. Email me with any/all feedback.
Thanks!

I'd be willing to provide feedback on the course for you and should be able to spare some time finishing the course as soon as possible if you'd like :)

Treehouse TeacherThanks for the help! I'm running a little behind with code challenges, so sadly this must wait until tomorrow. Hopefully I can get a little more done this evening. Talk soon!

Courses Plus Student 11,618 PointsHi Ben, I'm almost done with the Android track. Would love to get a chance to work through the weather app. I've been learning Java and Android for the past few months and I've learnt a lot from the Android track as well as Big Nerd Ranch Guide to Android Programming. I'll try to give useful feedback to the best of my ability.
Also, thanks for teaching me so much! You're a great teacher. (Didn't know where else to mention this.)

Treehouse TeacherThanks for the kind feedback! I love the Big Nerd Ranch guide, too (I attended their inaugural Android bootcamp!). See my comment above...I'll be in touch soon. Thanks for the offer to help!

Treehouse TeacherRatul and Aaron, there appears to be an issue with some active students not showing up in auto-completion (I can't tag you here in the Forum), which won't let me add you to our new QA system. So sorry! I have filed an issue and we'll have it fixed next time around. I'll be publishing the course soon, though! Thanks so much for your offer to help.

5,345 PointsHello Ben i can give it a go! What should I expect to know in order for me to give constructive feedback? In other words how much knowledge should I have in using the Android IDE and how much experience should i have using the java programming language? Looks like it'll be a good challenge for me.
