[Sugar-devel] Request for feedback data
Hello Sugar Community, I am Nikhil Mehra, an undergraduate student at Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee. I have been recently contributing to Sugar Labs (@NikhilM98). I am looking forward to participating in GSoC'19. I can see some great ideas on the GSoC ideas page. I want to understand the perspective and requirements of the teachers, students and the volunteers regarding Sugar and Sugarizer. I've gone through planet.sugarlabs.org and I found the nice things communities are doing for the education of the children. I loved palexo.blogspot.com blog. I found some valuable feedback on monsoongrey.wordpress.com blog, however, the last post was from 2013 so it appears to be outdated. Is it possible if I can get the latest feedbacks if they are documented somewhere? It would be a great help in providing improvements up to the requirements of the users. Warm Regards, Nikhil Mehra ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
Re: [Sugar-devel] How to add activities to Sugarizer on Android

I would like to add a chess activity for instance. On the OLPC it is easy to add activities. Actually, it's not just on the OLPC side...it's just as easy to do this with The Fedora-based Sugar on a Stick installations of Sugar, which is available for armhfp (Pi3+), i386 and x86_64. Of course, it's not Android, but the OLPC is far from the only way to make use of the Sugar environment. Here it is not that obvious. I have read some of the informantion in the wiki and searched in the archives of the mailing lists, but I am still not clear on whats steps to take to accomplish adding additional activities on android. Thanks in advance. Evert ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

Most organisations are pushing toward other technologies because of changing expectations. Let us know if there was anything we could have done to make this more obvious. > Evert > > > On Mon, Mar 04, 2019 at 11:04:26AM +0200, Evert Groenewald wrote: > >> On 2019-03-04 10:42, James Cameron wrote: > >>> You must rebuild Sugarizer. > >> Thanks.

Re: [Sugar-devel] How to add activities to Sugarizer on Android
You must rebuild Sugarizer. https://github.com/llaske/sugarizer#activities "You could distribute Sugarizer with whatever activities you want. To do that, you first need to adapt the content of the activities directory to match your wish: removing activities you don't want to distribute and adding in this directory new activities you want to include."
