UC San Diego - Experimental is the rolling release of the UC San Diego Mobile app. This rolling release is for users interested in developing for, and experimenting with, the absolute latest version of the UC San Diego Mobile app.
This version is intended for developers and designers and is absolutely, 100% NOT recommended for daily use. Rolling releases are not subject to the rigorous testing of the regular production release. Many things may (and probably are) only partially complete and are likely broken.
If your feature or enhancement is selected as a possible release candidate, due to its sheer awesomeness or immediate need, it will go through an additional vetting process. Who knows? Your idea could be included in the next production release and help students navigate their UC San Diego experience for many classes to come. And give you a nice feather in your cap to show potential employers. If successful, your feature or enhancement will be published to the UC San Diego mobile app for its 30,000 users to experience, and you will be added as a collaborator on mobile.ucsd.edu.
We look forward to helping you become a published app developer!
Campus Mobile supports Flutter 3.7.x
From the Campus Mobile GitHub repo click the "Fork" button. Next, use your favorite git client or command line to clone the repo:
# Clone your fork to your local machine
git clone [email protected]:YOUR-USERNAME/campus-mobile.gitYou'll want to make sure you keep your fork up to date by tracking the original "upstream" repo that you forked. To do this, you'll need to add a remote:
# Add 'upstream' repo to list of remotes
git remote add upstream https://github.com/UCSD/campus-mobile.gitWhenever you want to update your fork with the latest upstream changes, you'll need to first fetch the upstream repo's branches and latest commits to bring them into your repository:
# Fetch from upstream remote
git fetch upstreamNow you are ready to checkout your local experimental branch and merge in any changes from the upstream repo's experimental branch:
# Checkout your master branch and merge upstream
git checkout experimental
git merge upstream/experimentalYour local experimental branch is now up-to-date with any changes upstream.
When you begin working on a new feature or bugfix, it is important that you create a new branch. Not only is it proper git workflow, but it also keeps your changes organized and separated from the experimental branch so that you can easily submit and manage multiple pull requests for every task you complete.
To create a new branch and start working on it:
# Checkout the experimental branch
git checkout experimental
# Create and checkout a branch named newfeature
git checkout -b newfeatureYou are now ready to begin developing your new feature. Commit your code often, using present-tense and concise verbiage explaining the work completed.
Example: Add, commit, and push your new feature:
# Show the state of staged and unstaged files you created or updated
git status
# Add files to include in your newfeature
git add lib/core/push_notifications_in_app.dart
# Commit your code
git commit -m "Add in-app push notifications"
# Push your code
git push -u origin newfeature
From the time you created your new feature branch newfeature, to submitting a pull request, it is likely that your branch
Branch upstream/experimental is updated often. Prior to submitting a pull request, update your newfeature branch from upstream/experimental so that merging it will be a simple process which won't require any conflict resolution work.
# Fetch upstream experimental and merge with your local experimental branch
git fetch upstream
git checkout experimental
git merge upstream/experimental
# If there were any new commits, merge them from `experimental` and update your branch
git checkout newfeature
git merge experimental
git push origin newfeatureOnce you've committed and pushed your feature branch newfeature to GitHub, go to the page for your fork on GitHub, select branch 'newfeature' and click the 'New pull request' button.
If you need to make future updates to your pull request, push the updates to your feature branch newfeature on GitHub. Your pull request will automatically track the changes on your feature branch and update
The goal of this platform is to provide responsive and intuitive mobile interactions for a personalized campus experience.
UC San Diego uses this platform for its campus mobile app on iOS and Android.
