I would like to create an App for our high school football team where the students/parents can download the app to their iPhones or Android Phones along with a copy of the team roster as a local database (I Guess) so they can find out which player just did something great on the field during a game since all player jerseys only have a number on them. We go through the “Who Made That Tackle?” or “Who Made That Block?” for at least the 1st four games of each season and I’d like to put something together to make it easier for us parents this year!
I’d like to add a button to the App where the user could then connect to the team website and update their local database with the correct player names at any time they wanted too. The team roster is stored on a web server and is an SQL 2005 database. That way if the roster changes at any point during the season the users can have the most recent information.
I am familiar with ASP.NET but that’s about it. Pretty new to App development. Is this possible with MobiOne? I could probably just hard code the roster into the App but next year I would have to put out an entirely new App when the roster changes. I would think that there is a better way to accomplish what I am after other than hard coding the player names into the App.
I’m not asking anybody to spoon feed the answer here since I won’t learn anything that way but if anybody can point to some code examples or offer any advice how to go get this built I would be very appreciative.
Thanks to anybody that can offer some guidance.
