You can’t imagine how I adore and remember my fellows and friends at this company. It was one of the top places that I ever worked and lived in my life (I was living at the company for two years).

Cinemana Leanback (Android TV)

Android TV was at its beginning, and starting with it on this project step-by-step was a major improvments to my Android skills. I’ve learned what lean means, and how the design for TV should be. I’ve learned RxJava, because I realized, after watching a Netflix video on Rx that kind of such coding must be elegant, reactive and less coding to be written. I thought, that why whould RxJava to be made by Netflix unless there was a serious demand on it. It was the first application that I used Retrofit and Paper in it. Earthlink subscribers only.

Main development features

Kotlin and Java

My first RxJava usage, Paper, Retrofit, and lots of others

Cinemana STB ^Demo

This was my first project on an STB at the company back to June 2015. It was planned to be finished after a week! 😀, and lasts for about 5 months in development. The main reason, was that the company were unsure and have vague vision of what this project would actually do. So, up on their unstable and unsure submitted needs, I spent the time learning more and more about Android and how deal with JSON, RESTful APIs, how to exploit GitHub libraries that ease development, how to customize views and how to use text fonts for appropriate UI position, i.e., primary and secondary texts, light, normal and bold weight; how to use localizations and dark and light app thems. I also learned a lot about UI/UX from my fellows (specefically, our department manager Huthaifa and our director at that time Ali Usam Al Cherchefchi). They were really kind and give every help you might wanted for. Earthlink subscribers only.

CBox Launcher (Android TV)

It is a complement for Cinemana STB, since there must be a launcher that shows company internal apps at the launcher home screen. It was re-implemented three times, with each iteration having a complete different UI. The third iteration moved the app to Android TV to work with Cinemana Leanback, as shown in the screenshots. Earthlink subscribers only.
