Easy bookmarks is an Android app I developed for the last project of the Android Developer Nanodegree course.

The user an user can save and tag its bookmarks and take a look at what other people bookmarked too. My aim was to create an app that could be used as an example for the integration of many cool libraries (I'd like to write some posts about them in the future).

The main API I used are:

  • Google Sign-up for user identification
  • Firebase for storing and sync data and managing user authorizations
  • JSoup for extracting info from URLs

Also, thanks to Google for support:appcompat, support:design, shared elements transactions... and everything else
