Inspiration
I, personally, tend to find myself going to the store or a nearby restaurant and ordering the exact same five things, and each time I have to recalculate how much I owe; Ready Regular was inspired by the idea of recording your regular order and providing a way to calculate sales tax in bulk.
What it does
Ready Regular allows a user to save "lists" of items and their costs at a particular provider in a particular state. This is an efficiency app.
How we built it
I built it in Swift, this was in fact my first swift project, and it was done by creating various text boxes to receive data, which would then be used to calculate the sales tax and fill in the other struct parameters for each list object, these list objects would then be displayed as disparate cards.
Challenges we ran into
Manipulating the incoming data and further projecting it to the screen was difficult. While user friendly, Swift is very peculiar about variable creation and it took significant research to figure out how to produce an expanding display.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
I am proud of having created something approaching finished in a new language in less than 24 hours.
What we learned
We learned a lot about how to manipulate the user interface and display in Swift, and Swift in general.
What's next for Ready Regular
Additional features which I ran out of time to add, such as deleting, editing, and viewing past lists will be implemented, as well as color polish.
