Beginner Questions

Other Halo API Support
1

Hi everyone!

I am a sophomore in college majoring in Computer Science. I have limited Java and C++ knowledge, and I had a few questions.

I was wanting to develop a mobile app as a side project by using the API. Something simple that you could use to check your in-game stats and whatnot. Now I know these apps exist but learning how to do this would be great practice and something I would really enjoy. The only problem is that I really don’t know where to start. I don’t mind having to teach myself these things, but I would just like to know where to start.

How do is the API used to develop an app? Like how do I integrate all of it into an app?

Where would I learn how to use the API.

I realize I need more knowledge to be able to do this but that is why I’m here searching for it! Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,
Luciano

I’m guessing you’ll be programming onto your android?

Meaning It’ll probably be Java

On the bottom of the developer haloapi website, there is sample code for the different language.

I would try and copy and paste it onto the app and display the raw data first, and then work around that.

Yeah it will be Android! I noticed they had code samples. I’ll try it out and go from there.

Thank you!
