Project as a part of nano-degree at Udacity.
The goal is to create a News Feed app which gives a user regularly-updated news from the internet related to a particular topic, person, or location. The presentation of the information as well as the topic is up to you.

Returns a string describing 'time' as a time relative to 'now'. Time spans in the past are formatted like "42 minutes ago". Time spans in the future are formatted like "In 42 minutes".
DateUtils.getRelativeTimeSpanString (long time, long now, long minResolution, int flags);The following example demonstrates how to add the SwipeRefreshLayout widget to an existing layout file containing a ListView: developer.android link
<android.support.v4.widget.SwipeRefreshLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/swiperefresh"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<ListView
android:id="@android:id/list"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
</android.support.v4.widget.SwipeRefreshLayout>Let's say that I want to create the following URL:
https://www.myawesomesite.com/turtles/types?type=1&sort=relevance#section-name
To build this with the Uri.Builder, following should be done.
Refere this stack overflow post.
Uri.Builder builder = new Uri.Builder();
builder.scheme("https")
.authority("www.myawesomesite.com")
.appendPath("turtles")
.appendPath("types")
.appendQueryParameter("type", "1")
.appendQueryParameter("sort", "relevance")
.fragment("section-name");
String myUrl = builder.build().toString();Well-maintained API which returns information in a JSON format.
