Texas Tech University College of Media and Communication

I was contracted by the Texas Tech University College of Media and Communication to create an iOS app. The College of Media and Communication intends to use this app as a platform for their college, but also decided to included general university information for students, faculty and staff.

A hamburger style navigation  reveals the features of the app. Features include:

  • The Hub@TTU News Feed (RSS based)
  • KTXT News Feed (RSS based)
  • Displaying results of yearly student photography contest
  • Lyrics and music to the Texas Tech University Fight and Matador Songs
  • Campus and Bus Map

What I learned:

  • Making async network requests to process RSS feeds
  • JSON and XML serialization using NSJSONSerialization
  • Introduction to GoogleMaps SDK
  • Xcode storyboard experience
  • App Store release process
