    26 * Do not use Android Studio's drag and drop widget feature to create a GUI because it hardcodes values instead of using ratios
    27   which is bad practice! (this would make the app appear differently on different devices based on the screen size).
     25* Do ''not'' use Android Studio's drag and drop widget feature to create a GUI because it hardcodes values instead of using ratios
     26  which is bad practice! (This would make the app appear differently on different devices based on the screen size.)
    2827
    2928* Use XML to create static layouts (layouts that will stay the same) and Java to create dynamic layouts (layouts that will or may change).

     38{{{#!java
    3939       ApplicationContextProvider.getContext().sendBroadcast(new Intent(
    4040       Intent.ACTION_MEDIA_SCANNER_SCAN_FILE, Uri.fromFile(writeFile)));
    41   where writeFile was the file I just saved.  (The full code can be seen through this Wiki here:

    5252* Instead of distributing via cable, upload the apk--which can be found in the Android Studio Project files--to google drive so scouts can
    53   download and install it on their phones.  This is faster and less prone to error.
