For our next project, we'll try something a bit more ambitious; we'll build a desktop application that aggregates data from various social media networks and displays it in one seamless interaction. We're also going to try something new, and we're going to give this project a name, something that might be a bit more appealing than the dry, albeit accurate, description-turned-name that we've used to date. This application, then, we'll call Sunago, which is the phonetic spelling of the (Koine) Greek word συνάγω, which means I gather together, collect, assemble.
Building the app will cover several different topics, some familiar, some new. That list includes the following:
- JavaFX
- Internationalization and localization
- Service Provider Interfaces (SPI)
- REST API consumption
- ClassLoader...
