GSOC: Android and HTML5 features (Project)

 

Hello Team,

I am under-graduate planning to participate in GSOC 2014. I found this project (Android and HTML5 features) very interesting and is keen to work on this project as my GSOC project this summer. I want some initial help and guide, so how Can I start now and what should be my intial steps, as I want to start as soon as possible.

I am thinking of extending the mobile version, by using Apache Cordova for developing a hybrid app. This way we will have same codebase for multiple platform (Android, Windows, iOS etc.). The Idea of mine is to use AngularJs + IonicFramework to build a Hybrid Application. IonicFramework is specifically made for app development using Cordova/Phonegap. It overcomes many shortcoming of JQM (like slow behaviour and click/touch problem), which mainly was used previously. With AngularJs we have power on routing and various other features. I am currently working on two application using this same framework. I have integrated Google Maps, geolocation API and handled data using JSON request/response in one of this application. Other than the client side languages, I have expirince of working in JavaEE, PostgreSQL, Maven and Ant build Tools, Git and SVN and Eclipse. Below are my linkedIn profile.

I am really very excited to work on this project with this new framework in scope. I have researched a lot before and found this perfect for modern smart-phones.
