Capping a great coding day... the update data button is 100% functional!

Published:

That means with the click of a button, the app updates all 14 games of the PA lottery to the most recent draw, fills a progress meter along the way, and gives a message when done! Being me, I looked at the tails of all 17 csv files to make sure everything wrote correctly... and it did!

All of the progress is also being aware that this is eventually headed to android, but also runs on windows.

Callbacks instead of print statements, proper project directory layout, even using a background thread to keep the android system from falsely detecting a program freeze...

This is why it is taking so long, also it is my first gui app.

Taking the time to be detail oriented at the beginning is sure paying off now. Kivy even has a downloadable docker image so I do not have to start from ground zero with the android build when it is time. Already have WSL 2 (Windows system for Linux) installed on windows, so there should be no technical oversights when it is time to reach that milestone.

Update and exit buttons are wired and functional. Time to step away from it for the rest of the day and let the smoke stop pouring from my ears... it was a good day!
