Awesome. Which tool are you working on?

Using flutter, and my problem of course is the endless encoding/decoding of messages and message passing between Dart and the java-side. Slow work. Also makes it very easy to hit bugs in the SDK.

A suitable discussion for Slack, I think.

Hi @RModi , There are some improvements that are coming app in 1.4 (2.4 android application). I think that right now the app shows where (dataelement/attributes) the error happens (this has improved quite a bit during the last versions). There are ongoing efforts in order to make those errors logs stored at the core level as well (Server side), so it should be easier for system admins/implementers to troubleshoot the issues

@jose Do you have any details on the “componented ui” for the android SDK?

I’m interested in building the previously mentioned “bulk editing” app, i presume this will require previous extensive experience in web development, or will basic CRUD functionalities be also briefed in the workshop on 17-18 mar?

Well noted, thanks @jose. Looking forward to the improved experience.

Hi @sekiskylink, I’m sharing this guide as well and hopefully it will help you setup your app. Please let us if you’re still having issues on a new topic and we’ll look into that for sure!

Thanks, @debora & @austin for the leads. I was eventually successful. I also needed to update my version of node-js to the latest version, as well as most of my pre-existing modules.

Happy to hear that it worked out in the end! @sekiskylink :slight_smile: Would you mind sharing more about which guide or documentation helped you in getting up and running? So that we can improve on our resources :pray:

Hello Gassim, can I use react-native in developing mobile apps for dhis2. Thank you

Welcome to the community @fmwesigwa . I moved your post to a related topic. Since I’m into app development as well, I have asked @austin a similar question so I’d like to quote him:

“we don’t currently support that [React Native] (officially) for DHIS2 apps - you can create DHIS2 Android Apps with the Android SDK

BTW, you’re not the first to ask! If you search for “react native” in the community search,
you’ll find users who’ve asked the same question. :slight_smile:
