The serious beginning… umm…

12-April-2019 | Friday

12:18 pm:

Started my school bus project. I mean… learning to use Firebase realtime database, and Google API for map.

12:29 pm:

Well… I wasted the entire time!

2:50 pm:

Just starting…

3:19 pm:

• Configured Firebase.
• Downloaded google_services.json
• Got the Google Maps API (12 months free trial… BullShit)
• Added that in gradle properties.
• I doubt why do we put keys in gradle properties?
• Got the answer -> https://technobells.com/best-way-to-store-your-api-keys-for-your-android-studio-project-e4b5e8bb7d23

3:55 pm:

Well… I don’t have to save the API key into the gradle properties.I can simply put it in string resources as of now.

8:06 pm:

I’ve been a lazy af. Just adding (learning to ad) map to the ui.

2 days Later… (15-April-2019)

NO PROGRESS.

Been trying to clone the project from git to my Mac only to see empty project. So… yeah NO PROGRESS
