π: Interview with Developer Ifeanyi Ezeofor

Submitted by Wendy Boswell (Intel) on January 16, 2015


One of the most exciting developer contests recently was the Intel™ App Innovation Contest, an event spanning 20 countries and featuring multi-language (English, Chinese, and Russian) developer-focused competition. The goal was to generate innovative Windows*8 desktop demo apps that are optimized for Lenovo* All-In-One and tablet devices, inspire developer creativity, leverage new form factors, and establish new use cases and PC interaction.

Winners were chosen from four regional contest sites in Russia (Habrahabr), China (CSDN), India (ThinkDigit) and the US (Code Project). In addition, there were quite a few stand-out finalists that received prizes and recognition for their innovative projects.

One of these was Ifeanyi Ezeofor, who stood out with his project titled “Live Within”:

“Education is an important sector of the world; imagine the universe when access to education is easy in every location especially Africa and Asia. Code Project is also directly or indirectly educating programmers all over the world, also the United Nation Millennium Development Goal 2 is achieving universal primary education.

Livewithin is an application that will provide virtual classroom over a network (LAN, WLAN, internet or intranet). It uses client-server architecture; the server is the tutor’s pc or tablet, and the student t’s pc or tablet will serve as client.”

The video of this app in action is available here.

Tell us about your development background.

I started with basic markup; xml and html then moved to web development with PHP and ASP, after some years I started developing desktop and application using c# win form and WPF application. I have been moving according to the current trend in development world and the latest in use technology. I also have experience in WCF.

What got you interested in coding, particularly for the App Innovation Challenge?

What got me interested in coding is ‘how powerful a tool it is to create change for humanity’, I have seen people transform their society through one development or another, and I see codding as a tool for me to affect the world positively. I want to be a part of the next positive change in Africa that is why I joined the App Innovation Challenge.

Tell us about your history with the App Innovation Challenge.

I was interested in the AIC because of the concept. The challenge allowed us to choose an area of interest and then to develop a solution for it. Highlights: a conference system without the huge infrastructure, flexible both on the internet and on local network, developed using WCF.

What were the key takeaways/lessons learned?

I learnt a lot about time management as a programmer. I started my development late and from scratch but I was able to finish within the given time.   

What Intel developer tools did you use? Was there anything Intel did to help you in your app development beyond the software tools such as Hackathons, forums, consultation, etc.?

Intel helped me with the provision of some documentation that exposed me more to the technicality of touch devices.

Any particular categories or markets which you are interested in developing apps for?  What’s your motivation? Where do you seek ideas and concepts for new apps?

I develop app as solution, any market I found myself I try to bring change to the convectional way things are done. During the AIC, I was in school so the solution I developed was for African schools.

Tell us about the overall development experience: did everything go smoothly? What challenges did you come across, and how did you solve them?

It all did not go smoothly, one of the challenges I had was on the broadcasting of picture frames and audio captured by my app, I had to redo this phase even as I was approaching deadline. I had many setbacks but I did not give up. I had to access materials and start using them under 3 hours. It was a whole lot of experience for me.

Were you able to finish you app project? Is the app available online? If yes, can you provide a link? Do you have future plans for this project?

I was able to finish my app for the challenge in demo stage; it is not online because I am working on improving the app for market use. However, the video demo of my app can be found here https://vimeo.com/79252311

Since the last Challenge are there any new projects in the horizon? How did the Challenge help you in your professional or personal development projects?

The challenge helped me lot in my profession, especially in time management and speedily delivery of new products.

What did you wish you knew before you got started – and what would you do differently?

I wished I knew how to produce a quality video demo. In my organization, I not responsible for that, but If I knew how to do that I would have created a good video presentation for my demo.

Were there any Intel developer tools and/or resources that you found or find particularly helpful?

The article that helped me was the one provided by Intel during the challenge but I do not have the link again. Another article that I find helpful is ‘Designing for Ultrabook Devices and Touch-enabled Desktop Applications’ https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/designing-for-ultrabook-devices-and-touch-enabled-desktop-applications

Give us an example of a “breakthrough moment” in your app innovation challenge development.

My breakthrough happened on memory management, after development the app kept on using a very big amount of the CPU resources, then I remembered how threading works, I now implemented the same mechanism to reduce the high consumption of CPU resources.

Any tips around other tools, documentation, and/or non-Intel websites which were the most helpful to the dev effort? Where do you go to keep up to date with new developer trends or programs?

Code Project was a great help, Microsoft Academy, MSDN Webcast: Windows Communication Foundation Top to Bottom by Michele Leroux Bustamante, MSDN-the Microsoft developer network.

What other Windows app projects are you currently involved in?

I am currently working on school management system that will unite African high schools and primary schools and improve education standard in Africa.

Where do you see Windows app development in the next five years?

In the next five years, there will still be windows app, but there will be higher demand for metro based app and web app. This is because of the increasing rate of the use of mobile and handheld devices.

How would you encourage other developers who might be interested in Windows app development? Where to get started?

I encourage anyone that might be interested in Windows app development to get started with one of the dotnet languages preferably c#, and make good use of MSDN.

What do you find most interesting or exciting about Windows App development?

Windows app has a very large market especially in Africa. Also it is easy to get started.

Do you have any images, screenshot or videos of your past/current projects or work area which you would don’t mind sharing with others? Social channels?

I don't really know .but Lagos auditions was today and i body bagged three rappers in a row with cruel freestyles ..

I used that '' Your wallet is like poultry... cos everything in it is just a chicken change" and a girl in the audience screamed so loud and had an orgasm

I also said... " I got my dick in your Catholic mum's mouth...like holy communion',... and the stage scattered ...

where is Ksslib ... ? When Vato uploads the vid on YouTube.. I would post here... I didn't yell and all that though...just cool spit cos it wasn't really serious.. today has got to be one of my worst freestyles ever though.. I stuttered so many times that I was so angry with myself.. must be because of school stress and lack of practice cos my frees are Rusty as ffuck..
it was just some premedicated punches and some lines that I've dropped on NL that saw me through.

Lol. No be only orgasm, na abortion..

I ll reserve my comment for now till I watch the vid. Make Vato do upload that thing sharp sharp. Boys are not smiling.

[color=#1980bc]The economy keeps rising but the masses are not feeling its positive impact.

Even Socrates will struggle to crack this Paradox. [/color]

delightful1:
You kidding? Some still do that sh*it o, I have/know a whole lot of people like that..They are everywhere I go

Well, let's just say I acted stupidly then. I was just to pissed at how selfish people could be. I had no clue of the course at all and I really tried to read it but it was as of y brain was under construction then, Lol.

I don't get distracted (at least most of the time). In fact, I can hardly assimilate when there's total silence.

Thank God you got back to your senses before submitting, na one chance you for enter

[color=#bc5519]
Don't mind me, I almost forgot that being selfish albeit in a childish way is no respecter of Age.

Yea. Some academic work can be very frustrating. The more you read them, the less you understand. Lol

Hmmmn.. That's strange sha. Never thought a silent environment could ever be a deal breaker for anyone when it comes to reading. Seems you're more weird than I am. [/color]

delightful1:
You are indeed weird.

She was just lying jare, she didn't wanna explain to me ni and because of that I chose not to write the exam at all. Carried it over and did better than her (tho na still carry over). I will never forget that, it pained me.

Lol, I can't read well without music too. With the volume almost at max. Hope you canceled the lyrics sha? Lmao.

Seems like she wanted to pass alone . And here I was, thinking such childish mentality was meant for only secondary school kids.

But you sef get your own for body oh. Was that enough to decide on not writing your exam?

Don't you get distracted by the music? More like --doesn't it divide your attention?

Lol.. Of course I cancelled it sharperly. Luckily for me, I only wrote a few words before I gained back my senses..

delightful1:
Lol, your own no be here o
I used to have a friend who says explaining things to others make her forget. And I'm like 'pleeasssse, tell me another lie.'

Lol. That one na small compared to other not so conventional things I do.

Yea.. She might be telling the truth. The Brain works differently on different people. What works for A might not work for B.

Just like my cousin who only assimilates better when reading with music. I tried it and ended up writing Lyrics on my answer sheet.

delightful1:
There is God o.

For all dis blood you pipu are sharing.

redvektor:
The teaching part work well for me nice articule o.p

Thanks. But I didn't write the article sha. The link to the source is there.

delightful1:
They work for me too, especially no. 5. I am always happy when someone comes to say "can you please explain this to me?" cos that person is doing me as much favour as I am doing him/her.

Vert true. I love explaining too cos it helps in retaining information for a very long time. Atimes when there's no one to explain to, I create imaginary people and start explaining to them.

delightful1:
ksslib e yaf want to Kill me with laugh o
Nice one bro, please don't 'forsake' the thread.

Late comer. The show is over.

[color=#1980BC]This is my first time of seeing a hair line that starts from the middle of a head.

#strange [/color]

Darkrebel666:
Its not a freestyle rap competition.
You must have memorised your verses before hand so its impossible to diss yourself

Yeah I know. That was my own way of saying I wouldnt perform well .

Darkrebel666:
Pen Priest does Audio brawls on my former whatsapp group. .

Auditions is this Sunday by 12pm ... .. Too bad you can be in it

Well, since you know him, at least you know wetin to expect before hand.

Lol even if I had the time/chance to audition, I wouldn't take it. I never get time do audio wella, na stage battle I wan con go try? HeHe.

The sudden transition from text battling to Stage wil be too shocking for even myself that I might end up dissing myself on stage.

Darkrebel666:
Imfao...burnt offering ...
yeah man...The rappers so far are wack.. but that was Delta anyway.. I'm sure Lagos would have much more to offer .and that's just auditions anyway .. Battle locations would be posh and it would be organised better.
The first battle should be Penpriest vs Dark rebel(me)
Acapella. 3 rounds.. 2 minutes each ..
..Pen Priest is a lyrical demon himself ..so it would be effing great
So are you coming on Sunday?

Pen priest? Never heard of him.

Nope. Iam not in Lag.

We all will be anticipating. Represent well oh.

When is the date again? Only saw 12pm.

[color=#1980BC]My Gf asks for money all the time---- Commercial Bank
Uses my money to train her brothers--- Investment Bank
Buys expensive jewellery with my money even though I currently don't earn much---Diamond bank.
And she sleeps with almost every guy who has a little change to spare------ Access Bank

Honestly, that wittch isn't just one bank .. She's Central Bank. [/color]

Darkrebel666:
Limerick...ksslib.. Elymaxiimus...Giyazz.. ...? ya'll should sign up....

I just finished watching the video. First of, its a big sigh of relief and a welcome development that Stage rap battle is beginning to gain attention in Naija. Hopefully, with the right sponsors, the league ll grow big with time.

But mehn, those rappers ehn. Choi, dem do nonsense no be small. No hard hitting punches at all and the environment looked somehow like the organisers ain't even serious with the shiiii.

The Tobi guy they were hailing self was just there. If you, giyaz or Lime catch that one---- E go turn burnt offering.

Hopefully, that of Lagos will be better. Lag no dey kuku dull for that kain thing. No forget to post the link here sha.

Guests:
What?

You're damn right..
