Can I work on this

[isabelcosta]

Hey, @deezy136 are you going to participate on GHC Open Source Day? I'm saying this because this is reserved until the end of next week for that event. So it's not available now for other members of the community.

[deezy136]

I would like to participate where do I sign up

@deezy136 This event is related to Grace Hopper Celebration (GHC) - https://ghc.anitab.org/ . Are you participating in this event? If yes, you can choose this to work on Open Source Day during the GHC, if not, you can't work on this at least until next week.

@isabelcosta Is this issue open ?

[isabelcosta]

@shiv07tiwari yes it is. Since there are no updates on the PR, this one is available. Do you want to work on this?

[shiv07tiwari]

@isabelcosta Yes I can work on this.
Are their any particular design mocks I should follow ?
Also, what all contents do you need in the about section.

[isabelcosta]

@shiv07tiwari I added some tips on the issue description. You may have to look up information regarding the app to make the screen (on GitHub Wiki, any documentation you can find, ...)

[shiv07tiwari]

Okay, I will work on this.

[shiv07tiwari]

@isabelcosta The UI I am designing will look better and profeesional if i use card view using implementation 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:27.1.1', is it okay ?
Also, i think adding links for github repo and slack is nice, so should I use the icons for them ?

[isabelcosta]

I don't have a problem with the implementation, is that the newer version? If yes you just have to update the dependency version :)

Regarding links to the slack and github I like it :)

Regarding the UI itself, can you do a quick mock up ui of what you're thinking? I'm not a fan of those card views for every option, but I might be "wrong". Once you do that UI share it here please.
@shiv07tiwari

[shiv07tiwari]

@isabelcosta This is the design i made right now. Looks good ?
(Changed AboutActivity to About Us)

[isabelcosta]

Are you on slack? If yes can you share those designs there to have more input from the community? If you're not there I can share them as well @shiv07tiwari

[shiv07tiwari]

Yes i am. I shared them. :)

[isabelcosta]

This is open again for new people to this repository.
If anyone gets stuck on this, PR #126 has some work done.

[SaumyaSingh1]

@isabelcosta I want to work on this issue .

[SaumyaSingh1]

Is this open ?

[isabelcosta]

@SaumyaSingh1 this is open and available yes if you want to work on it you can. Do you want to?

[SaumyaSingh1]

Yes , I want to work on it :)

[yatri1609]

@isabelcosta can I take this up?

[SaumyaSingh1]

@yatri1609 I have already submitted a PR . After finalising the design isabelcosta will merge it . I guess I am right @isabelcosta .

[isabelcosta]

@yatri1609 , @SaumyaSingh1 is working on it. I just haven't had time to check this out. I forgot to remove the "Status: Available" label. Just removed it! Feel free to look at other issues :)
