Platform and Software Requirements:
- Tested on Chrome (latest version v26) in a MacOSX environment
- Should work on Firefox (although only with the latest version, v20). We welcome any feedback that helps in making our application browser-agnostic.
- Should work in Chrome on other OSes (Windows, Linux), but not fully tested.
Instructions for Starting Up Prototype:
- Download the following zip files:
Starmarker.zip
KaJaM.zip - Go to the KaJaM! website.
- Login with username "kajam", password "kajam".
For the tasks we focused on in this prototype see the "Scenario Tasks" section from our GR3 writeup.
Shallow Parts of the Prototype
- Files are not actually uploaded to the application, and the 'contents' of uploaded files are randomly generated (except for "kajam.zip" and "starmarker.zip", which are partially fixed for the purposes of following our scenario tasks).
- Similarly, changing or approving an album does not save any music on the server.
- The contents of the "All Uploads" tab is not a part of our scenario, or our design (it's more focused on managing uploaded music, rather than importing new music). As such, it has not been implemented at this time.
- Album information listed on the "Reporting" tab is not retrieved from a database, but is instead canned data.
Miscellaneous (Troubleshooting)
- Most problems should be related to the wrong version of browswer (make sure Chrome is v26 and Firefox is v20)
- Other times your local browser settings may affect the aesthetics (font, color settings etc.)
