Weird question? Will there ever be a CGCookie app? I love that CGCookie tracks my progress and kind of reminds me of Duolingo or Khan Academy. It’s not that I need it or anything. Just something that popped up in my head. Lol.
We have considered it. I am interested what others think and want on this front. Tell me more!
amberkelly I am not an app developer by any means nor do I know how much resources go into something like an app. I’m fine with everything online. Speaking of apps, LinkedIn Learning has a thing in which you have the option to download lessons from a course so you can learn offline. I just saw some similarities with the layout of CGCookie compared to other sites like Khan Academy, LinkedIn Learning and Doulingo - Specifically with the quizzes and showing you how much progress you made through a course. Speaking of Duolingo, having reminders, and notifications to keep you on track and being able see your progress over the last few months or so would be cool.
An app on your phone would be cool, the ability to view your progress, to be able to set learning goals and also set a reminder to log on and learn.
Progress view would be similar to the site.
Setting learning goals would let you select a course and set a date you plan to complete it by. Multiple courses and dates could be set to track progress of a playlist or a series of courses for a specific skillset, sculpting for example.
Setting reminders would let you set a regular time and date when you mostly have free time, Sunday afternoon at 1pm for example, with a variable reminder before the due time, 15 minutes, ...., 1 hour, 2 hours, ...., or even a day before.
The ability to view exercise submission comments would be nice too, and Badges, XP and leaderboard.
At this point I think we're basically saying add the whole site hahaha. Community forums would be awesome as well as the Podcast. Possibly private/direct messaging. I'm sure there's people that would like to chat with other members. I know we have the discord server, but some people don't really discord (I have it, but only really look at it when I get a notification, so that's probably on me haha). Generally if I'm on the site for courses, I'm on my computer, but I go on the community and scroll through the gallery at night once I've called it a day with blender, so having a app that allowed me to go through all of that would be awesome opposed to the mobile site.
