elixir-android <--> Android comms

[llaisdy]

Dear all -- good-looking project!

This is not really an issue, more of a query:

Would an Android application built with this be able to

• receive push notifications;
• call Android OS functions?

Or would that require work on the bridge?

[dominicletz]

Right now that would require work on the bridge, but I expect this to improve over time.

[llaisdy]

Thanks! I'll take it out for a test drive just now. Do you think there is much potential for qualitatively speeding up the startup time (eg to under a second)?

[dominicletz]

There definitely is room for that. Startup time is something that erlang+elixir have generally improved on recently and the example skeleton is still using a relatively old version.

Thanks :)
