Overview

The F1 App is an Android application designed to provide fans with the latest news, results, and standings from the world of Formula 1 racing. Built using both Java and Kotlin programming languages in the Android Studio development environment, this app offers a sleek and modern user interface with a focus on usability and engagement.

Currently, the app displays hardcoded data for news, results, and historical statistics. However, future updates will integrate APIs to fetch real-time information, enhancing the user experience.

This project follows the Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture, ensuring clean separation between application logic, data management, and the user interface. The app serves as a great learning tool for developers interested in mastering Android app development with Java and Kotlin.

Features

• ✅ News Feed - Displays articles and updates about the latest Formula 1 developments. (Currently hardcoded, with plans for API integration.)
• ✅ Drivers, Teams & Circuits - Showcases driver and teams, along with grand prix circuits.
• ✅ Modern UI - A user-friendly interface designed using Kotlin for seamless navigation.
• ✅ Race Schedule - Provides information on upcoming races, circuits, and teams.
• ✅ MVC Architecture - Follows the Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture to separate concerns and maintain clean code.
• ✅ Hardcoded Data: For now, all information is pre-defined; API integration is planned for real-time updates.

Technologies Used

• Programming Languages: Java (for application logic & data management), Kotlin (for UI & Android-specific features)
• Development Environment: Android Studio
• Architecture: Model-View-Controller (MVC).
• Data Storage: Hardcoded data (temporary); planning to use APIs or a database for real-time data.
• UI Design: XML layout files for defining the user interface.
