Abstract
Open Data Kit (ODK) Tables is an Android application that allows users to enter and curate tabular data. Users can view the data through built-in or custom views using HTML/JavaScript. In this paper we discuss our lessons learned from real-world deployments of Tables. Specifically, our initial aim of providing a customized view of a table did not have a sufficient level of customizability. Rather than simply the views of the data tables, the entire application needed to be navigable using web-based tools that do not require recompilation to make presentation changes. We also discuss issues encountered with making the application scalable when faced with real-world datasets.
Open Data Kit (ODK) Tables是一个Android应用程序,允许用户输入和管理表格数据。用户可以使用HTML/JavaScript通过内置视图或自定义视图查看数据。在本文中,我们将讨论从实际的table部署中学到的经验教训。具体来说,我们最初的目标是提供一个自定义的表视图,但没有足够的可定制性。不仅仅是数据表的视图,整个应用程序需要使用基于web的工具进行导航,这些工具不需要重新编译以进行表示更改。我们还讨论了在面对真实数据集时使应用程序具有可伸缩性所遇到的问题。
