AlayaCare Android skill test

What's included

The repo contains a skeleton Android application created using Android Studio 2.2 and Gradle 2.2. The app contains a couple of empty files to start you off:

• NoteActivity: An empty activity to display a list of notes.
• NoteModel: An empty data model to represent a note entity.
• activity_note.xml: An empty XML view for the note activity.

Requirements

• Android Studio 2.2
• Gradle 2.2 (can be installed using Android Studio)
• Android SDK tools necessary platforms (can be installed using Android Studio SDK Manager)
• A github account

Installation

• Fork this repository
• Open the directory in Android Studio 2.2
• The app should build and run if all requirements are met

Instructions

The goal of this exercise is to create a very simple note app by following the tasks below. Try and have each commit represent a completed task. Code should be clear, easy to read, and modular. First fork this repository, then commit your changes and create a pull request when you're done (See How to submit your work?). The provided files can be used as a guideline, but add or remove whatever other files you need.

• TASK 1: Create a data source for the notes:

  • create a note model that can capture the text entered by a user and the date the user created the note
  • create a simple mock data source to return a list of fake notes asynchronously

• TASK 2: Display a list of notes in the note activity:

  • use the mock API to populate the list
  • each list item should display the note text and date

• Task 3: Implement logic for creating a new note:

  • do this however you want
  • storage can be in memory
  • note text should not be empty
  • new notes should appear in the note activity

• Task 4: Add search functionality to your list of notes:

  • search should support matching to any part of the note text

• OPTIONAL Task 5: Save, edit and delete notes

  • create a database to persist the notes
  • remove your mock data source and save new notes to your database
  • add an option to edit and delete a note from the list
