"It started out with a kiss... How did it end up like this?"

[KMatle]

I've got 4-5 B4x apps which started like "So let's do a new small app"

1. Ok, let's add a scrollview
2. Add some labels with text's to it
3. Hey, what about Firebase Messaging? -> added
4. Enryption would be nice, too -> added
5. One could need TTS (Text to speach) -> added
6. I could send the FCM messages via my php server -> added
7. So now I need a user login and a database -> added
8. How do I handle the users? I need an admin app. Oh. B4J would be great for that -> done
9. Wouldn' it be nice to send FCM messages from that B4J app to the B4A users? -> added
10. Why can't I receive FCM messages with B4J? -> Get an old tablet or phone and build a brigde with
Network + AsyncStreams + B4XSerializator -> done
11. What about pictures to upload to the server -> added
12. Could't I intercept SMS', too and display them -> done
13. What about mails -> yep
14. PDF? Of course
15. Wow, there's a new example in the forum. Let's copy it to the app and try... -> done
16. Oh, THIS lib is THE SOLUTION. Let's add it...
17. What about round images?
18. Reading Excel sheets would be a great thing -> yep

So when I take a look at some apps I've created, I have absolutely no idea what they were good for

Often it's too easy to do fancy and mighty stuff with B4x

Well, you learned lots (of concepts) while developing so it was still well-spent time!

Sounds like my last endeavour - can I display the 3d image from my phone in B4J ?
Now I wonder why I spent time getting it to work, as I could have just used another program for the same result.
