Getting Started

This project uses the Gradle build system. To build this project, use the "gradlew build" command or use "Import Project" in Android Studio.

Inspiration

I am very interested in Chinese idioms and want to help other people learn them. Resources available online for English speaking people is limited. So I want to use both YouTube and an app to help people learn Chengyu. This project is also part of Udacity's Android Developer NanoDegree Program.
