So lately I have been thinking about creating a good way to record information about Ts that's quick and easy to use. Being a software developer I'd like to go ahead and write my own code, gui, etc to do so. I know there already exists software for this, but I need something to do with my spare time and to just keep my skills sharp.
The way I'm planning on setting it up is to have a tab layout, in which the main tab has a list of the user's species and name(like: Pterinochilus murinus(Lucy)). From here the user can select from the list and it will open up a new tab containing various fields of the selected tarantula's information. This info can of course be edited or added to.
So overall its pretty straight forward and simple to use. My questions to you are: any suggestions as far as layout/set up/user friendliness/additional ideas?
Also, when you go to record information about your Ts, what info do you record? Species, DLS, Molts(date, new size), etc.
Just trying to get an idea of what all potential users would like in a program like this.
Thanks!
