Re: [sequoyah-android-dev] Android Native Perspective

[Marcel Gorri <wmg040@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Doug,

One concern we have since the beginning is to reach not only the expert users, but also the new ones. Our objective is to spread the project and attract people who are beginning to develop for mobile/native as well. Thus our focus on usability and out-of-box experience. We want to create a tool which is good enough for a wide range of users, no matter their expertise or if they have one or more screens.

We know that native developers usually are more experienced, and we also understand that this might be a tough objective, but we are doing our best.

Of course, your feedbacks are always welcome, so please keep commenting.

Thanks and regards,

 Marcel

It's easy to overcrowd a perspective. Putting everything into one
isn't often the best choice. If I need to use DDMS and LogCat, I go to
the DDMS perspective, or even better open it up into a separate window
and put it on my second screen.

And I assume Code Snippets would be for newbies? Not sure what you are
planning to put there since everyone I see doing native code is doing
something very speciallized, like writing a game or multi-media
engine.
