#TeamThing™ Demo App
The TeamThing demo app is designed to show-off the capabilities of Kendo UI Mobile, a HTML5 mobile app framework that helps developers create apps that automatically adapt to the look-and-feel of different devices.
NOTE: TeamThing is not an official Kendo UI product. It is an unsupported demo, meant to be used as a learning tool. Use at your own risk.
##What is TeamThing? TeamThing is an app that helps teams easily keep track of what everyone is doing. It's like a task list for teams.
Users can do the following things in the TeamThing app:
- Join a team
- Create new Things
- Update Thing status (InProgress/Completed/Delayed/Deleted)
- Browse personal Things for current team
- View other team members
##How do you use TeamThing? To use TeamThing, simply browse to the TeamThing app from any supported mobile device. In the current version, iOS, Android, and BlackBerry are supported.
To use the demo, you can log-in with the following credentials:
- User: [email protected]
- Pass: 1234
TeamThing will automatically adapt to the look-and-feel of your device, providing a "native" experience wherever you use it. No need for separate apps or code for each device.
##How is TeamThing built? TeamThing consists of two primary pieces:
- Kendo UI Mobile powered HTML/JavaScript front-end app
- JSON REST API (using Web API)
The demo app is deployed to AppHarbor. An additional browser-based admin interface is also being developed.
###Kendo UI Mobile App You can find the files specific the Kendo UI Mobile app in:
(Root) > TeamThing.Web > Mobile
This folder contains the HTML, JavaScript, and CSS needed for the mobile app.
The bulk of the app's logic is contained in two files:
- teamthing.app.js
- teamthing.data.js
The starting point for the app, which includes the Kendo UI Mobile Application initialization is contained in:
- index.html
###REST API The TeamThing RESTful API is built using ASP.NET MVC 4's Web API and Telerik's free OpenAccess ORM communicating with a cloud-hosted SQL Server instance. The primary app endpoints can be found in:
(Root) > TeamThing.Web > Controllers > Thing/Team/UserController.cs
#Improving the Demo TeamThing is a living demo, far from finished or perfect. You can help make the demo better! Take a look at the existing Issues on GitHub and make your own suggestions for improvement.
There are a number of features planned but not yet implemented, including things like data security and federated log-in.
