These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine ready for development. If you want to help developing the app take a look to the contributing section, at the end.
We use Android Studio (the official Android IDE) for development, so we recommend it as the IDE to use in your development environment. Once you install Android Studio, you can use the Android SDK Manager to obtain the SDK tools, platforms, and other components you will need to start developing. The most important are:
- Android SDK Tools and Android SDK Platform-tools (upgrade to their last versions is usually a good idea).
- Android SDK Build-Tools 26.0.2.
- Android 7.1 (API Level 25) SDK Platform.
- Android Support Repository
You can also install other packages like emulators for running the app, if you don't have or don't want to use a real device. The minimum supported Android version is 4.1, Jelly Bean (API level 16).
First of all you need to get the source code, so clone this repository on your local machine:
git clone https://github.com/citiususc/calendula.git
cd calendulaAndroid Studio uses Gradle as the foundation of the build system, but it's not necessary to install it separately. Instead, you can use the included Gradle Wrapper. To build the app, open a terminal in the repository folder and run:
./gradlew clean assembleDevelopDebugNote: "developDebug" is the build variant that we use for development. To see other variants, please check Calendula/build.gradle.
Then you may install the app on a device or emulator:
adb install Calendula/build/apk/develop/debug/developDebug-[version].apkThese tasks can also be executed from Android Studio with a few clicks.
We maintain releases of Calendula on Google Play, F-Droid and here on Github.
- The latest version of the app available on those pages reflects the code of the
masterbranch. - Release branches are usually deployed through the Google Play BETA channel before they are made available to everyone. If you want to be a member of the testing community, join the testing group on Google Groups, and you will automatically receive the updates from the BETA channel like normal updates from Google Play.

We try to follow Material Design principles. Take a look at the result!

We have a lot of development ideas, and we are open to newer ones. Below are some interesting features that could be very useful:
- Information about nearby pharmacies, their locations and timetables
- Trip assistant (how many pills I need for this weekend?)
- Introducing gamification concepts to improve adherence.
We are using the the following resources in the app:
- People Vector Pack by Freepik
- Baby, Dog and cat icons by Flaticon (CC 3.0 BY)
- Alarm clock animation by Daan De Deckere
