Changes 2/5/15 (forgot to post this one) - Firefox OS

Now that I have the actual Flame phone, I can push my apps onto it and try them out on the hardware. It's actually really cool because you can use Firefox developer tools on the phone while it is running, so you can see what things look like on the actual hardware in real time. I didn't get too much done today because styling and getting stuff to look good takes a really long time, especially when you don't know what you want or what you are doing.
I started a new app and put my buttons in, but I'm not sure where to go from there. Additionally, it's hard to figure out how I want the layout to be. For instance, I haven't decided on the size of the buttons and whether they should be in a single row or have multiple side by side.

  1. Great to see a screenshot. My last comment to Finn asked him to start including them in his blog posts as well. Since UI design if fundamentally visual, you can't really get by without them.

    If we are out tomorrow (which seems likely), I'm going to create a local branch of your github repo and see if I can get your apps running on my phone.
