Top Android Projects with Source Code

Android Projects with Source Code – Your entry pass into the world of Android

Hello Everyone, welcome to this article, which is going to be really important to all those who’re in dilemma for their projects and the project submissions. This article is also going to help you if you’re an enthusiast looking forward to explore and enhance your Android skills. The reason is that we’re here to provide you the best ideas of Android Project with source code that you can choose as per your choice.

These project ideas are simple suggestions to help you deal with the difficulty of choosing the correct projects. In this article, we’ll see the project ideas from beginners level and later we’ll move on to intermediate to advance.

top android projects with source code

Android Projects with Source Code

Before working on real-time projects, it is recommended to create a sample hello world project in android studio and get a flavor of project creation as well as execution: Create your first android project

Android Projects for beginners

1. Calculator

build a simple calculator app in android studio source code

Android Project: A calculator will be an easy application if you have just learned Android and coding for Java. This Application will simply take the input values and the operation to be performed from the users. After taking the input it’ll return the results to them on the screen. This is a really easy application and doesn’t need use of any particular package.

To make a calculator you’d need Android IDE, Kotlin/Java for coding, and for layout of your application, you’d need XML or JSON. For this, coding would be the same as that in any language, but in the form of an application. Not to forget creating a calculator initially will increase your logical thinking.

Once the user installs the calculator, they’re ready to use it even without the internet. They’ll enter the values, and the application will show them the value after performing the given operations on the entered operands.

Source Code: Simple Calculator Project

2. A Reminder App

Android Project: This is a good project for beginners. A Reminder App can help you set reminders for different events that you have throughout the day. It’ll help you stay updated with all your tasks for the day. It can be useful for all those who are not so good at organizing their plans and forget easily. This would be a simple application just whose task would be just to remind you of something at a particular time.

To make a Reminder App you need to code in Kotlin/Java and design the layout using XML or JSON. For the functionality of the app, you’d need to make use of AlarmManager Class and Notifications in Android.

In this, the user would be able to set reminders and time in the application. Users can schedule reminders that would remind them to drink water again and again throughout the day. Or to remind them of their medications.

3. Quiz Application

Android Project: Another beginner’s level project Idea can be a Quiz Application in android. Here you can provide the users with Quiz on various general knowledge topics. These practices will ensure that you’re able to set the layouts properly and slowly increase your pace of learning the Android application development. In this you’ll learn to use various Layout components at the same time understanding them better.

To make a quiz application you’ll need to code in Java and set layouts using xml or java whichever you prefer. You can also use JSON for the layouts whichever preferable.

In the app, questions would be asked and answers would be shown as multiple choices. The user selects the answer and gets shown on the screen if the answers are correct. In the end the final marks would be shown to the users.

4. Simple Tic-Tac-Toe

android project tic tac toe game app

Android Project: Tic-Tac-Toe is a nice game, I guess most of you all are well aware of it. This will be a game for two players. In this android game, users would be putting X and O in the given 9 parts of a box one by one. The first player to arrange X or O in an adjacent line of three wins.

To build this game, you’d need Java and XML for Android Studio. And simply apply the logic on that. This game will have a set of three matches. So, it’ll also have a scoreboard. This scoreboard will show the final result at the end of one complete set.

Upon entering the game they’ll enter their names. And that’s when the game begins. They’ll touch one of the empty boxes present there and get their turn one by one. At the end of the game, there would be a winner declared.

Source Code: Tic Tac Toe Game Project

5. Stopwatch

Android Project: A stopwatch is another simple android project idea that will work the same as a normal handheld timepiece that measures the time elapsed between its activation and deactivation. This application will have three buttons that are: start, stop, and hold.

This application would need to use Java and XML. For this application, we need to set the timer properly as it is initially set to milliseconds, and that should be converted to minutes and then hours properly. The users can use this application and all they’d need to do is, start the stopwatch and then stop it when they are done. They can also pause the timer and continue it again when they like.

6. To Do App

Android Project: This is another very simple project idea for you as a beginner. This application as the name suggests will be a To-Do list holding app. It’ll store the users schedules and their upcoming meetings or events. In this application, users will be enabled to write their important notes as well. To make it safe, provide a login page before the user can access it.

So, this app will have a login page, sign-up page, logout system, and the area to write their tasks, events, or important notes. You can build it in android studio using Java and XML at ease. Using XML you can build the user interface as user-friendly as you can. And to store the users’ data, you can use SQLite enabling the users to even delete the data permanently.

Now for users, they will sign up and get access to the write section. Here the users can note down the things and store them permanently. Users can also alter the data or delete them. Finally, they can logout and also, login again and again whenever they like.

7. Roman to decimal converter

Android Project: This app is aimed at the conversion of Roman numbers to their significant decimal number. It’ll help to check the meaning of the roman numbers. Moreover, it will be easy to develop and will help you get your hands on coding and Android.

You need to use Android Studio, Java for coding and XML for interface. The application will take input from the users and convert them to decimal. Once it converts the Roman no. into decimal, it will show the results on the screen.

The users are supposed to just enter the Roman Number and they’ll get the decimal values on the screen. This can be a good android project for final year students.

8. Virtual Dice Roller

Android Project: Well, coming to this part that is Virtual Dice or a random no. generator. It is another simple but interesting app for computer science students. The only task that it would need to do would be to generate a number randomly. This can help people who’re often confused between two or more things.

Using a simple random number generator you can actually create something as good as this. All you’d need to do is get you hands-on OnClick listeners. And a good layout would be cherry on the cake.

The user’s task would be to set the range of the numbers and then click on the roll button. And the app will show them a randomly generated number. Isn’t it interesting ? Try soon!

9. A Scientific Calculator App

Android Project: This application is very important for you as a beginner as it will let you use your logical thinking and improve your programming skills. This is a scientific calculator that will help the users to do various calculations at ease.

To make this application you’d need to use Android Studio. Here you’d need to use arithmetic logics for the calculations. The user would need to give input to the application that will be in terms of numbers. After that, the user will give the operator as an input. Then the Application will calculate and generate the result on the user screen.

10. SMS App

Android Project: An SMS app is another easy but effective idea. It will let you send the SMS to various no. just in the same way as you use the default messaging application in your phone. This project will help you with better understanding of SMSManager in Android.

For this application, you would need to implement Java class SMSManager in Android. For the Layout you can use XML or JSON. Implementing SMSManager into the app is an easy task, so you would love this.

The user would be provided with the facility to text to whichever number they wish also, they’d be able to choose the numbers from the contact list. Another thing would be the Textbox, where they’ll enter their message. Once the message is entered they can happily click on the send button.

How model queries work in Django

How model queries work in Django

Welcome to my blog, hey everyone in this article we are going to be working with queries in Django so for any web app that you build your going to want to write a query so you can retrieve information from your database so in this article I’ll be showing you all the different ways that you can write queries and it should cover about 90% of the cases that you’ll have when you’re writing your code the other 10% depend on your specific use case you may have to get more complicated but for the most part what I cover in this article should be able to help you so let’s start with the model that I have I’ve already created it.

**Read More : **How to make Chatbot in Python.

Read More : Django Admin Full Customization step by step

let’s just get into this diagram that I made so in here:

django queries aboutDescribe each parameter in Django querset

we’re making a simple query for the myModel table so we want to pull out all the information in the database so we have this variable which is gonna hold a return value and we have our myModel models so this is simply the myModel model name so whatever you named your model just make sure you specify that and we’re gonna access the objects attribute once we get that object’s attribute we can simply use the all method and this will return all the information in the database so we’re gonna start with all and then we will go into getting single items filtering that data and go to our command prompt.

Here and we’ll actually start making our queries from here to do this let’s just go ahead and run** Python manage.py shell** and I am in my project file so make sure you’re in there when you start and what this does is it gives us an interactive shell to actually start working with our data so this is a lot like the Python shell but because we did manage.py it allows us to do things a Django way and actually query our database now open up the command prompt and let’s go ahead and start making our first queries.

Top 6 Python Packages You Should be Using in Every Django Web App

There are countless Python packages easily added to any project. But there are some packages you can't help but use in every Django web app because they've proven to be extremely beneficial and time-saving.

We decided to focus on those packages, the ones you'll end up installing regularly, and explain the installation and configurations needed to get them up and running. 

While some Python packages offer cool functionality needed for one specific project, the packages discussed below are the bread-and-butter of the Django packages.

Django Web Framework

But we can't jump into Django packages by talking about the Django web framework.

A web framework is comprised of modules or packages that allow developers to quickly write web applications without having to handle the precise details of the protocol and other web app management.

Django is considered a full-stack web framework in which a database, application server, template engine, authentication module, and dispatcher are all neatly combined to create a high-level framework. These individual components are included upon package installation and often just need some minor configurations for them to function correctly. 

macOS Terminal

(env)User-Macbook:env user$ pip install django

Windows Command Prompt

(env)C:\Users\Owner\desktop\env> pip install django

At the time of this article, the latest version of Django is 3.0.8. To install the latest version, all you need is the command pip install django.

If you wish to install a different version, then specify the version number as demonstrated in the command pip install django==2.1.15. Please note that there are two equal signs after the package name, not one. 

Once the installation is complete, you will need to start configuring your Django web app with a project and an application. If you want to jump right into building your Django web app, check out the quick start guides to Django Installation and Django Configuration. Or if you are just getting started and need a step-by-step tutorial, see the Beginner's Guide to Django Web Apps

But we are here to talk about Python Packages meant for Django web apps, not basic Django configurations so we'll keep moving.

We have a lot to cover.

  1. Django TinyMCE4 Lite
  2. Pillow
  3. Django Crispy Forms
  4. Django Tables
  5. Django Filter
  6. Python Decouple

 


 

(1) Django TinyMCE4 Lite

macOS Terminal

(env)User-Macbook:mysite user$ pip install django-tinymce4-lite

Windows Command Prompt

(env) C:\Users\Owner\Desktop\Code\env\mysite>pip install django-tinymce4-lite

Once you have finished the basic configurations of your web app, you can install a cool Python package named django-tinymce4-lite. This package is actually a smaller version of the Django application django-tinymce4 that contains a widget to render Django form fields as TinyMCE editors.

TinyMCE is a WYSIWYG ("what you see is what you get") text editor that converts HTML elements into editor instances or "plain text".  This python package is highly recommended if you are looking to create a blog as you can easily edit text that is then formatted to HTML within the actual template.

 

env > mysite > mysite > settings.py

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    ...
    ...
    'tinymce',
]


TINYMCE_DEFAULT_CONFIG = {
    'height': 400,
    'width': 1000,
    'cleanup_on_startup': True,
    'custom_undo_redo_levels': 20,
    'selector': 'textarea',
    'browser_spellcheck': 'True',
    'theme': 'modern',
    'plugins': '''
            textcolor save link image media preview codesample contextmenu
            table code lists fullscreen  insertdatetime  nonbreaking
            contextmenu directionality searchreplace wordcount visualblocks
            visualchars code fullscreen autolink lists  charmap print  hr
            anchor pagebreak
            ''',
    'toolbar1': '''
            fullscreen preview bold italic underline | fontselect,
            fontsizeselect  | forecolor backcolor | alignleft alignright |
            aligncenter alignjustify | indent outdent | bullist numlist table |
            | link image media | codesample
            ''',
    'toolbar2': '''
            visualblocks visualchars |
            charmap hr pagebreak nonbreaking anchor |  code |
            ''',
    'contextmenu': 'formats | link image',
    'menubar': True,
    'statusbar': True,
    }

After installation, you will need to add tinymce to the list of installed apps in the settings file then add the default configurations below.  The default configurations define the height, weight, spellcheck, and toolbars. 

 

env > mysite > mysite > urls.py

"""mysite URL Configuration

The `urlpatterns` list routes URLs to views. For more information please see:
    https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.1/topics/http/urls/
Examples:
Function views
    1. Add an import:  from my_app import views
    2. Add a URL to urlpatterns:  path('', views.home, name='home')
Class-based views
    1. Add an import:  from other_app.views import Home
    2. Add a URL to urlpatterns:  path('', Home.as_view(), name='home')
Including another URLconf
    1. Import the include() function: from django.urls import include, path
    2. Add a URL to urlpatterns:  path('blog/', include('blog.urls'))
"""
from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path, include


urlpatterns = [
    path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
    path('', include ('main.urls')),
    path('tinymce/', include('tinymce.urls')), #add this

]

Then add the TinyMCE path to the project URLs.

 

env > mysite > main > models.py

from django.db import models
from tinymce import HTMLField

class MyModel(models.Model):
    ...
    content = HTMLField()

Finally, you can quickly add TinyMCE to the Django model by importing HTMLField at the top of the page then calling it in the model field. If you are unsure of how to use Django models, check out the article, How to use Django Models for more information. 

 


 

(2) Pillow

macOS Terminal

(env)User-Macbook:mysite user$ pip install Pillow

Windows Command Prompt

(env) C:\Users\Owner\Desktop\Code\env\mysite>pip install Pillow

So, this package is not specific to Django but is needed for image and file uploads to work correctly in a Django project.  If you are looking to have a media upload field in your Django model for let's say an article cover image, you need to install Pillow. It's a Python Imaging Library fork for uploading files correctly. 

 

env > mysite > mysite > settings.py

MEDIA_URL = '/media/'

MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media')

Once installed, you need to add a media folder URL and ROOT directory to your settings file. 

 

env > mysite > mysite > urls.py

from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path, include
from django.conf import settings #add this
from django.conf.urls.static import static #add this

urlpatterns = [
    path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
    path('', include ('main.urls')),
]

if settings.DEBUG: #add this
    urlpatterns += static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)

Then you need to add the necessary imports at the top of your project's URL file and specify the URL pattern to the media folder. Keep in mind that the media upload will not work in production given the if condition. You will need to reconfigure your media upload location when you are ready to deploy.

 

env > mysite > main > models.py

from django.db import models

class MyModel(models.Model):
    ...
    image = models.ImageField(upload_to='images/')

Now to upload an image, go to your models file and add an ImageField with the upload location as 'images/'. The uploaded images will then be added to a media  > images folder that will automatically be created upon the upload. 

For more information about correctly creating a model, accessing the upload location in the Django admin, and rendering the model in a template, refer to How to use Django Models.

 


 

(3) Django Crispy Forms

macOS Terminal

(env)User-Macbook:mysite user$ pip install django-crispy-forms

Windows Command Prompt

(env) C:\Users\Owner\desktop\code\env\mysite>pip install django-crispy-forms

Let's talk about Django forms. Their functionality is great but their appearance isn't the best. You can choose to install django-crispy-forms in your project to quickly solve this issue.

 

env > mysite > mysite > settings.py

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    ...
    'crispy_forms',
]

CRISPY_TEMPLATE_PACK = 'uni_form'

For it to function correctly, you will need to go to the settings file and add crispy_forms to the installed apps list. Keep in mind that there is an underscore between crispy and forms.

Then you need to specify the crispy template pack. The one listed below is the default but if you are using the Bootstrap CSS framework, check out how to integrate Bootstrap with django-crispy-forms

 

env > mysite > main > templates > main > contact.html

{% load crispy_forms_tags %}

<form method="post">
    {% csrf_token %}
       {{form|crispy}}
       <button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>

The package django-crispy-forms is added to the project in the form of a filter added within the Django template language {{form}}. This format will not only call all of the form fields but also format each field according to the crispy form template pack specified in the settings.

Refer to the article Render Forms with Django Crispy Forms for more information regarding the form rendering process using crispy forms and the article Build a Django Contact Form with Email Backend for more general information on how to build a Django form. 

 


 

(4) Django Tables

macOS Terminal

(env)User-Macbook:mysite user$ pip install django-tables2

Windows Command Prompt

(env) C:\Users\Owner\desktop\code\env\mysite>pip install django-tables2

Now let's say you want to create a dynamic table in your Django project that connects to a model. Install django-tables2, a Django-specific package for table rendering.

 

env > mysite > mysite > settings.py

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    ...
    'django_tables2',
]

Add Django tables to the installed apps.

 

env > mysite > main > models.py

from django.db import models


class MyModel(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=100, verbose_name="full name")
    email = models.EmailField(max_length=200)

Then create the model you wish to use in the table.

After you have created the model, you will need to run the commands python manage.py makemigrations and python manage.py migrate to add the model to the database and add your model objects via the Django admin. For more instruction, see How to Use Django Models

 

env > mysite > main > (New File) tables.py

import django_tables2 as tables
from .models import MyModel

class MyTable(tables.Table):
    class Meta:
        model = MyModel
        fields = ("name", "email", )

 

Now, create a new file called tables.py in the application folder, main, and import tables from django_tables2 at the top of the file. Then create a class that specifies the model and field names. 

 

env > mysite > main > views.py (Class-based views)

...
from django_tables2 import SingleTableView

from .models import MyModel
from .tables import MyTable


class ListView(SingleTableView):
    model = MyModel
    table_class = MyTable
    template_name = 'main/table.html'

 

If you are looking to use class-based views, go to the views file and add the view class specifying the model, table, and template. Again, you will need to import the necessary variables from their appropriate files at the top of the file.

 

env > mysite > main > urls.py (Class-based views)

from django.urls import path
from . import views

app_name = "main"   


urlpatterns = [
     path("table", views.ListView.as_view()),
]

Then make sure there is a tables URL in the app urls.py file. If you are looking to learn more about class-based views, check out the article Django Class-based Views.

 

env > mysite > main > views.py (Function-based views)

...
from django_tables2 import SingleTableView

from .models import MyModel
from .tables import MyTable


def list(request):
	model = MyModel.objects.all()
	table = MyTable(model)
	return render(request=request, template_name="main/table.html", context={"model":model, "table":table})

 

Or you can choose to do function-based views in the views.py file. Either one will work, but the format is different. 

 

env > mysite > main > urls.py (Function-based views)

from django.urls import path
from . import views

app_name = "main"   


urlpatterns = [
    path("table", views.list, name="list"),
]

Then add the table URL in the app urls.py file. 

 

env > mysite > main > templates > main > (New File) table.html

{% load render_table from django_tables2 %}

<div>
    {% render_table table %}
</div>

With the views and URLs configured, you can render the table in the template by loading in render_table from django_tables2 at the top of the file then calling render_table and the context of the table passed in the view.

By default, the class-based view passes the table context as just table, and in the function-based view, we also chose to specify the context of the table as table

 

If you want to add Bootstrap CSS to the table:

env > mysite > main > tables.py

import django_tables2 as tables
from .models import MyModel

class MyTable(tables.Table):
    class Meta:
        model = MyModel
        template_name = "django_tables2/bootstrap4.html"
        fields = ("name", "email",)

 

Add a template name to the tables.py file connecting to the Bootstrap template. This and other template files can be found in the Lib > site-packages > django_tables2 > templates > django_tables2 folder of your project.

 

env > mysite > main > templates > main > (New File) table.html

{% extends "main/header.html" %}

{% block content %}

{% load render_table from django_tables2 %}

<div class="container">
    {% render_table table %}
</div>

{% endblock %}

Then you can extend to a header that loads in the Bootstrap CDNs. This is the easiest way of adding Bootstrap to all of your templates using the same piece of code.

If you are unsure of how to use the extends tag with the Bootstrap CDNs, check out the Django extends tag and block content section in the Beginner's Guide to Django Web Apps

 


 

(5) Django Filter

macOS Terminal

(env)User-Macbook:mysite user$  pip install django-filter

Windows Command Prompt

(env) C:\Users\Owner\desktop\code\env\mysite>  pip install django-filter

Now that you have a table, you probably want the ability to search for specific content within the rows and filter the table by its results. The django-filter package can easily be used on top of the django-tables2 package to accomplish this.

 

env > mysite > mysite > settings.py

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    ...
    'django_filters',
]

Add Django filters to the installed apps. Note that is django_filters not django_filter.

 

env > mysite > main > (New File) filters.py

import django_filters
from .models import MyModel


class MyFilter(django_filters.FilterSet):
	name = django_filters.CharFilter(lookup_expr='icontains')

	class Meta:
		model = MyModel
		fields = {'name', 'email'}

 

Now, create a new file called filters.py in the application folder, main, and import django_filters. Then list the model and the model fields you wish to filter by.

You can also choose to add django_filters.CharFilter to the class. In the example above, the filter displays any rows where the name column contains the query specified. 

You can also choose to do django_filters.CharFilter(lookup_expr='iexact') if you are looking to filter only by an exact query match.

 

env > mysite > main > views.py (Class-based views)

...
from django_tables2 import SingleTableMixin
from django_filters.views import FilterView

from .models import MyModel
from .tables import MyTable
from .filters import MyFilter


class ListView(SingleTableMixin, FilterView):
    model = MyModel
    table_class = MyTable
    template_name = 'main/table.html'
    filterset_class = MyFilter

 

Then for a class-based view, import FilterView from django_filters.views at the top of the file and change django_tables2 import from SingleTableView to SingleTableMixin. You will also need to import your custom filter from the filter.py file.

In the class view, ListView will now inherit SingleTableMixin and FilterView and list the filterset_class as the custom filter within it. 

 

env > mysite > main > templates > main > table.html

{% load render_table from django_tables2 %}

<div>
    <br>
    <form action="" method="GET">
        {{filter.form}}
        <button type="submit">Filter</button>
    </form>
    <br>
    {% render_table table %}
</div>

With class-based views, the URL will stay the same but you will need to add a form HTML element and the Django Template language calling the filter and the form within the template. You also need a submit button within the form to submit your filter queries. Nothing changes about the way the table renders.

 

env > mysite > main > views.py (Function-based views)

...
from django_tables2.views import SingleTableMixin
from django_filter import FilterView

from .models import MyModel
from .tables import MyTable


def list(request):
	model = MyModel.objects.all()
	filterset_class = MyFilter(request.GET, model)
	table = MyTable(filterset_class.qs)
	return render(request=request, template_name="main/table.html", context={"model":model, "table":table, "filterset_class":filterset_class})

 

If using function-based views, make the same imports and the class-based views, then create an instance of the MyFilter class and pass in a GET request and model as arguments. Pass in the filterset_class as a queryset argument in the table then lists the filterset_class as context in the return render. 

 

env > mysite > main > templates > main > table.html

{% load render_table from django_tables2 %}

<div>
    <br>
    <form action="" method="GET">
        {{filterset_class.form}}
        <button type="submit">Filter</button>
    </form>
    <br>
    {% render_table table %}
</div>

With function-based views, you will need to specify the filterset_class, or the context declared, as the filter on the form. Everything else is the same format as the class-based template.

If you are looking to style the form, either scroll back up to the Django Crispy Forms section or click at the article mentioned earlier, Render Forms with Django Crispy Forms.

 


 

(6) Python Decouple

macOS Terminal

(env)User-Macbook:mysite user$ pip install python-decouple

Windows Command Prompt

(env) C:\Users\Owner\desktop\code\env\mysite> pip install python-decouple

The last and arguably most important Python package we will discuss is python-decouple. This package hides your sensitive configuration keys and information from hackers. It was created for Django but it is now considered a "generic tool" for separating configuration settings.

 

env > mysite > (New File) .env

SECRET_KEY =sdjioerb43buobnodhioh4i34hgip
DEBUG =True

env > mysite > mysite > settings.py

from decouple import config

SECRET_KEY = config('SECRET_KEY')
DEBUG = config('DEBUG', cast=bool)

Create a new file named .env in the project folder then import config in the settings.py file. Then transfer all of the configuration settings and variables you wish to hide to the .env file and call each variable using the python-decouple format of config('variable').
