Looks interesting.
Are you interested in any help with this project? I could provide a TFS (classic or GIT) environment for that purpose

Once I get V1 rolling publicly, I'll throw it onto a TFS or GitHub.
Luckily I get MSDN Subscription with work for the TFS purposes, but I haven't yet used TFS.

Right now I just want to get an initial working push!

The above link will be updated when I push significant chunks.

TFS is really a great tool. Not just for source control, but also for developing things SCRUM-style with progress managment, sprints and bugreporting. It takes a while to use it in a really professional way but as soon as a project is "more than a few files of code" or "more than 1 person" I can highly recommend working in it. The initial setup (1st time) will cost you a day though if you have never done it before.

I will keep an eye on this thread, but send me a PM whenever you need any help with the actual programming, architecture, or tooling.

Interesting project, will follow this and maybe I can contribute in some way after V1 release. There is to few .net project going in the cubing community.
TFS is very nice to work with and it' mainly because of what AVGalen writes, but it is also a pain to use because of just that. If you don't use a lot of the project management function TFS has, it is not worth using.

"If only TFS would be easier to use "1 capability at a time". And if only it wouldn't be so integrated to the internal domain." is what was going through my head after discussing this at work with the local TFS-guru.
His answer was: Just setup a free account at http://tfs.visualstudio.com/ and you have all you need for you project. I just had a quick look (work is busy, competition last weekend, pregnant wife also requires some time) and it seems to be exactly what we need for this project. What do you think?
 
Update: It turns out I'm going to be getting school credit for this. (Individual Study)

The bad:
No one else can help on this project until late-January.
I broke the teaser.

The good:
I'll have a dedicated 7-hrs a week where I have to work on the project.
I have added someone else onto the team who will also be getting credit (and dedicating 7hrs/week to the project).

Next post, I'll just create a new thread.

Too bad that I cannot help (officialy). If you need a code-review or some other kind of help just let me know

I'm pretty sure I was reading it. I did a quick google search on the URL as I remembered it and there is content here which formed the basis of the thread I remember being posted a couple of days back.

Edit: please delete my posts and the above link if they're inappropriate for some reason

Ah, you meant "that THAT thread get deleted". I understand the confusion now.
I was away for the weekend, so I didn't see any thread like that appear and then disappear. However I would see no reason why it would be completely deleted
 
Sorry, guys. I'll be reposting the thread within the coming days. I broke the whole website (grr...Deployment/Migrations...) and decided to move it into the private forum upon pre-release anyway.AVG - I'll be taking you up on that code review!To clarify: I had that thread deleted, no accident.

I've been programming for quite a while, but I actually don't know what language these devices are programmed in.
Click to expand...
Android: Java, C++
IOS: (mostly) Objective C and C
Windows Phone: (mostly) .NET (C#/VB), C++

Basically every phone has a native format and as long as your language can compile to that format it will work. There is often a "managed" preference for most apps and a "native" possibility for apps that require maximum performance (games)

I would but if SOMEONE is willing to help with the programming. But there are companies out there that have an Idea for a program and ask help to make it possible. Like Microsoft for example asking help from other software developers to make a new Program.

Hold it right there. Companies can't start by hiring people. Bill gates built Microsoft on his own. For the time, it was revolutionary. Then he got a team of programmers, but my point is he STARTED on his own.

This is true, however, I'm vaguely familiar with ios development. If I'm not mistaken, you can program apps with Java or Python. Case and point, the badmephisto app is python.
