FAQ

Q: Do I need to include a pull to refresh implementation, or the side menu?
A: No, all we are looking for you to do in this exercise is to build a simple list of predictions, and style it like our live apps. You are, of course, free to show us how you'd build any of the additional features in our app.

Q: I'm having trouble with Android Studio / The REST API isn't giving me what I expected.
A: Shoot us an email, we're happy to answer any questions you may have.
