# SpotFoxx

An Android App that allows the user to link Spotify Musik Songs and Playlists with real world Locations. 

The app can be found in the [Google Play Store](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spotfoxx&gl=DE)

# General Idea and Motivation behind the Project

The motivation to work on this app originates from my wish to learn and better understand, how to develop apps. A additional requirement was to better understand the use of APIs (client side only). 

Therefore, I started to search for a well documented and interresting API and found the [Web and Remote API of Spotify](https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/).

- Git                       -> Version Control 

- Spotify Remote Api        -> Used when ever possible to access the spotify app

- Spotify Web Api           -> Used when ever the remote api did not support the neede functionality 

- Firebase-RealtimeDatabase                -> Mainly used as Database to store data
