STYLIZE GUI USING CSS AND PRESENT APPLICATION TO STAKEHOLDERS

Overview

The visual appearance (look and feel) of an application greatly affects its acceptance and usefulness. You need to ensure that the Capestra application has a professional appearance. Once the development of an application is completed, it is important to review the format and functionality with the stakeholders. This step helps ensure that the application meets stakeholder expectations and lets them compare the created application to the SRS.

In this assignment, you will customize the look of your CapestraApp project to fit the organization’s visual identity (branding, typography, and colors). It is important to maintain consistency; use an external CSS file so it will be easy to update. Focus on the colors, font, and sizes as part of your formatting. As the designer of this application, it falls to you to make all decisions regarding typography, colors, shapes, and so on. Once completed, you will present your first release of the application to the organizational stakeholders. See the course Tools and Resources page for information about using Audio and Video—Kaltura, and for using PowerPoint.

Assignment Instructions

Complete the following steps for this assignment:

1. Customize the CapestraApp using an external CSS file:
   • Format the screens, form labels, input fields, and buttons using UI best practices for consistency and professional appearance.
2. Record a demo of your finished CapestraApp using either Kaltura or some equivalent video recording application.
3. Integrate a hyperlink to the recorded demo of the finished CapestraApp into a PowerPoint presentation that highlights the UI best practices applied to the CapestraApp:
   • Use appropriate language for both technical and nontechnical stakeholders.
   • Name your presentation file, following this pattern: LastName_Week10.pptx.
   • Do NOT physically place your recorded demo within your submission. Your PowerPoint presentation must include a hyperlink to somewhere on the Web where you have saved your recording.
4. Create a .zip file containing your CapestraApp project:
   • Before zipping your project, right-click the project and "clean" it. This greatly reduces the file size and speeds up the program's performance.
   • Then close NetBeans.
5. Add the PowerPoint presentation file containing a hyperlink to your demo recording to your .zip file.
6. Submit your cleaned CapestraApp project in an appropriately constructed and correctly named .zip file.
   • Rename your .zip file, following this pattern: LastName_Week10.zip.
