This is the companion prototype to a 2-part tutorial where we explore the utilization of variables to help us to recreate Apple’s native iOS Weather app. In both tutorials, we go over the different ways Proto.io makes variables available to use in building your prototypes - from the simple example of setting a value in the variables manager and utilizing that value in the prototype to creating and setting a custom variable based on the property of a container and then to the more advanced usage of ternary operators to affect an outcome based on conditions surrounding that custom variable. http://docs.proto.io/videos/ios-weather-app-variables-tutorial-part-1/ http://docs.proto.io/videos/ios-weather-app-variables-tutorial-part-2/

change the background color using variables and container states

Demo of Adding, Removing and Editing table rows

The project contains numerous examples completed using variables and conditional logic.

3 prototypes showing different uses of the form components for iOS 1) Activate / de-activate button when checking / un-checking Terms of Service 2) Capture text input to change property 3) Change number of tickets - limit 8 See how they were created step-by-step in the Using Forms webinar video: https://vimeo.com/118919393 This version on Vimeo includes time-codes so you can jump to particular sub-sections (repeated below as a preview): > Range of iOS form input controls 2:02 > Labels 2:17 > Text fields 2:32 > Setting placeholder text 3:04 > 5 Input Types that display the appropriate iOS keyboard (Text, Numeric, Email, Password, Telephone) 3:30 > Using the Telephone keyboard for credit card number input (large # keys) 4:08 > Need to view prototype on device in order to see the range of keyboards 5:59 > Multi-line text area input field 6:24 > Search Bar 6:40 > Checkbox control customization 7:22 > On/Off Switch control customization 7:52 > Slider control customization 9:27 > Increasing size of slider handle 9:47 > Picker Wheel Customization 10:00 > Prototype example: Activate button when checking terms of service 10:42 > Create a button with two states (using convert to container) 12:55 > Adding interactions to a checkbox control (on change activation/deactivation) 14:45 > Definition of variable and range of uses 17:04 > Using variables with text field interactions 18:25 > Prototype Example: Using a variable to capture text input and show it in a different text box using change property. 23:27 > Prototype: Use variables to increment and decrement counter showing number of tickets being purchased. 28:40 > Searching full range of icons built into Proto.io 29:10 > Using a variable to limit the range of tickets (0 to 8) 32:46 > Copying and pasting interactions with Variables 40:08

An example of a date picker that can be imported and used in your project. (Basic use of variables) tags: calendar, picker, date picker

Tourist app

Interactive TV app prototype of Hulu's home page. Use the arrow keys on your keyboard (note: mouse click to enable keys) or map to a remote control on a television screen to explore a Hulu like home screen with proto io. Note: Must click the canvas to enable key presses, this seems to be a common restriction with most prototyping tools when building key press focus interaction models.
