G'Soc 2017 - ODK Collect (Improved User Experience)

Tamsil_Amani · March 20, 2017, 9:01pm

Hello ODK Developers,
I really have a keen interest in
working for ODK Collect Project as part of my Google Summer of Code 2017. I
have read and understood the Project Ideas requirements and I am pretty
confident that I possess the required skills to fulfill your needs.
I have already posted some of the samples which you've asked to show on
this GitHub link;

ODK Collect was designed and released in late 2008, around the time Android reac…hed 1.0! Its look and feel has not been updated since and it's overdue for update to bring it in-line with Google's Material Design principles. This project will require a review of mobile data collection tools in the space for inspiration, a number of design iterations backed with stakeholder feedback, and then an implementation of the most promising design. Here’s a quick mockup to get your design juices flowing! <img width="783" alt="screen shot 2017-02-27 at 3 12 53 pm" src="https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/967540/23377792/47f650aa-fcff-11e6-842e-40856478b1ff.png"> **Note:** this project is listed as an option for students who want to participate in [Google Summer of Code 2017](https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/organizations/4911125733834752/). Some things to discuss here and to include in your project application: - Why is your proposed UI an improvement over the current one? - How will users find the functionality they are looking for? - How will you approach upgrading libraries in a safe way? - How does your user experience design address the needs of enumerators who may not be familiar with smart phones, may have reduced vision and/or may be working in a very bright, outdoor environment?

Here is one of my mock sample.

Please guide me so that I may improve my chances of being a member of your
team as well as develop my skills further.
