Well, i had to add more eye-candiness to get my grade, and it seems Cisternis' liked it, i got 30/30 cum laude =)
This is a screencast:
The concept is quite simple, you get the last 5 entries of the Safari's subscribed feeds, and you navigate them with the Apple Remote.
The code has a little... ehm.. "shortcut" i don't like at all, but i had to do it really fast, and i didnt want to refactor the code 30 minutes before the exam, but...
Computer Architecture, it's been a while, but now it's over, babe.
Now i'm banging my head against the GUI class: i'm coding a Front Row-like feed reader, with lotsa of Leopard juice in it!
Seriously, Core Animation really kicks ass, i've a couple of problems, but i'm pretty sure it's mine fault, i'm not really into graphics... i'd have to find what i'm doing worng.
On the other side, the Publication Subscription framework does its job nicely. It's really a joy to work with such easy and high level APIs, even for toy projects like this.
So, my fellow readers, what does it looks like, you might ask?! There you go, another youtube screencast! :)
Yep, it's pretty basic, but it does the job, however for my grade i need a bit more eyecandiness, i'm working on it, when i'll be done i'll post the sources.
And since we're talking about it, what features you'd like in a full-screen reader? I'm kinda short of ideas :).
