My Role: UI Programmer

- Communicate technical limitations with art (File size, no animated file formats supported, no video support, etc.)
- Integrate the Step Tracker with Apple HealthKit to track wheelchair, walk+run distance and step data.
- Set up systems for localizations of both text and units of measurement.
Other
- Having never worked with Swift or SwiftUI before, I learnt the language and how to develop apps for the Apple Watch.
- Swift UI was an unfinished language at the time of development, so I often had to find solutions to language bugs + limitations.
- This app also synced data with The Oregon Trail Apple Arcade title, so UI had also been implemented on mobile devices.
