Beyond the EU: DORA and NIS 2 Directive's Global Impact
Evaluation
1. Evaluation
This project involved me to create a mobile app based on either a film star, music
artist, sporting person and so on. I was working on my own for this project so I had
to do all the research, planning and designing. This allowed to me to explore further
into different skills in all categories.
This project was quite similar to the work I have done previously in terms of blogging
about the research and planning of a product. I made sure I blogged all the research I
have done and how I progress in the creation of the app.
One skill that came in handy was organisation. Organisation was a key skill in
AppFurnace as pages, files and functions had to be named properly.
My previous skills on blogging were also useful as I knew how to blog and embed
files such as a Prezi Presentation or a SlideShare Document.
My method of keeping my blog up to date during the creation of the app, I made
sure I took sufficient print screens of the work I had completed in the day or once I
had finished a section of the app.
In this project, my research and planning was well done and so I didn’t have any
issues in creating the app. This allowed me to create the app without having to go
back to find any content. It also helped that the person I had chosen to base my fan
app on was someone I was familiar with and knew a lot about.
I found AppFurnace a bit confusing at first and didn’t understand wha t each widget
was and how to code. Using the AppFurnace guidance enabled me to go ahead and
find out more features that AppFurnace offered.
If I had a chance to improve my app, I would add more videos, images and questions
for trivia quiz. I would also try and embed the latest news page in the app so it
doesn’t open up in a separate webpage.
If I was to do this project again, I would firstly look at the software I will be using to
create the app on and see what it offers so I know what to include in the planning
because I had planned out some features that I didn’t know how to do when it came
to creating it on AppFurnace. And I didn’t add some features in the planning as I
didn’t know I could do that for example I had added a shuffle and loop button in my
planning for the songs page however I did not know how to make those buttons
work when it came to designing it on AppFurnace.
