Would really love to see Ribbit built with...

It would be absolutely wonderful to see Ribbit built with Android Studio. I would love to see how using fragments are handled with the generated layouts when creating activities. Would also love to see something like:

  1. com.treehouse.ribbit.model
  2. com.treehouse.ribbit.view
  3. com.treehouse.ribbit.controller

I understand that i can strip out the use of fragments, but then I might as well just use Eclipse, and I don't wish to do that. I happen to have IntelliJ IDEA and I love it. It would be wonderful learning standard app creation per Google's guidelines.

Extra goodies to include would be use of geolocation, maps, Google+ sign in, navigation draw and the use of nested layouts. Doesn't that sound like fun? It sure does to me.

We cover some of that in the Android Studio stage of the Android Tools project. I also have some more notes to add to the project about differences when using Android Studio.

Your extra goodies sound great! Stay tuned for some of those throughout the rest of the year. We have lots planned for Android!
