No amount of noise on the screen can affect the press conference.

Wang Yufei has also started his operation.

"So before we designed the software, we first put ourselves in the product manager's mindset of what software we needed to develop. ”

"Okay, I've decided to give this choice to the random reporter friends who are here today!

The lights in the front row under the rostrum were turned on, and the press seats arranged on the right side of the rostrum were all excited, and some even stood up directly. Start grabbing this spot.

"Okay, please give the microphone to the journalist friend who is already standing up in the fifth row. ”

Wang Yufei casually pointed to a white reporter who wanted to jump up.

"Hello Mr. Wang, I am a correspondent for the New York Times in China, and my Chinese name is Kevin Luo. I'm a journalist, but I'm also a tech enthusiast. Because of my work, I often need to use jet lag when communicating with some peers, but I am not good at math, and every time I calculate the jet lag, it is a headache for me, but my phone can only set the time in four positions at a time, and I wonder if I can design a software on the spot that can make it easy for me to know the time anywhere on the planet at any time. I was also able to easily set an alarm clock with the local time without having to convert it. ”

Hearing this request, Wang Yufei nodded.

The staff retracted the microphone, and the lights in the front row went out again.

"I believe everyone should have heard it clearly just now, our international friend Mr. Luo Kaiwen, I hope that mathematics is not very good, and it is inconvenient to calculate the time difference, so I hope to design a software that can make it easy for him to grasp the time difference around the world, and he can also use the time around the world to book an alarm clock at any time. ”

In other words, Mr. Luo Kaiwen needs a special alarm clock, so why don't we name this software Earth Alarm Clock. ”

The large screen behind it already shows the minimalist programming interface.

Compared to other programming environments......

There is no comparison.

Above the software is a picture and a slogan: "Make programming easy!"

There is only one new software in the middle, and the software management has two buttons.

Below, there are buttons for material library, function library, encapsulated output, upload, etc.

Wang Yufei directly clicked on the new software.

This time the interface is a little more complicated, but it's still different from the traditional programming environment, so you can see how to do it at a glance.

"As you can see, first of all, we have to set a software name, we have just chosen a name, it is called the Earth Alarm Clock. ”

After speaking, Wang Yufei entered the word earth alarm clock in the name of the software.

This is followed by a dialog box for the description of the software's features.

"As you can see, here we need to enter concisely what features the software needs. In fact, the most important thing is a clock function, the description can be written, you can query the time anywhere in the world at any time, and set an alarm. ”

"If you have more complex requirements, you don't need to write them clearly, basically this is just to help you determine your own functional requirements. ”

While talking, Wang Yufei had already finished typing these things.

This is followed by two choices.

"Here's whether the software needs to be connected to the Internet, and we need to tick it here, because we need to get the exact time through the network through the software background. ”

"Whether we need to synchronously generate the server side, here select no, we don't need a dedicated server to calibrate the time. ”

After checking the options, Wang Yufei clicked the OK button.

The next moment, a dialog box popped up in the software: "The system has detected that there are keywords such as alarm clock and time in the title and content of the software, do you use the recommended material library?"

There are two options below: yes and no.

Wang Yufei spoke again: "The system will pop up this interface, indicating that there are keywords that can be recognized in the minimalist programming in our title and requirements. There are a lot of such keywords, here we click Yes, Minimalist Programming will automatically match the appropriate software interface from the database, we can choose Yes. ”

After speaking, Wang Yufei had already moved the mouse to the Yes option, and then clicked it.

The next moment, the blank space of the software interface is filled with pictures of various watches and alarm clocks.

Each icon has an ordinal number on it and a small box to check below.

The bottom right corner shows a total of about eight pages of content.

However, Wang Yufei did not make any choice, but said after swiping the mouse over the picture at random: "You can see that this is the software icon and background painting that the system automatically matches the two keywords of time and alarm clock." But because we want to make an alarm clock that can easily query the time zone and has characteristics, we can not choose these ordinary recommendations. ”

After speaking, Wang Yufei directly turned off the icon interface recommended by the system and clicked on the material library below.

"Let's go to the library and select a suitable screen to run the software on. In fact, if we had previously selected No, we would have jumped directly out of the Library. At the same time, our material library has two options: floor plan and 3D dynamic image. I think we can make this alarm clock with a 3D drawing. ”

After speaking, Wang Yufei chose the 3D dynamic button.

The software is then filled with 3D dynamic images again.

"This is some of the materials stored in advance on our server, most of them come from the Internet, a small number of GIFs that need copyright, we have paid for copyright, if it is a free source of material, users can use it for free, but if it is a material marked with the word copyright, users need to pay to use. The current ratio of free libraries to copyright libraries is 7:3. ”

"As far as I know, the most expensive material in the copyright library now charges one yuan for a single use. Of course, users can also open a membership, free access to all material libraries, the membership price is 100 yuan a year. ”

"Since my account is an internal member account, I can use all the materials in the library as I like. I wanted to be able to show this alarm clock intuitively and directly with the 3D globe interface. So we can type the word earth in the search bar. ”

After clicking OK, several slowly rotating globe patterns appear below.

Wang Yufei randomly selected the third earth on the icon and clicked OK.

"The next step is the most important step, please click on the function library, it doesn't matter if you don't know how to use the function, because the software will automatically match, clock, time difference, alarm clock, and provide a search function to check these positions. Then click OK, remembering that each option is separated by a comma. ”

"Now that we've finished making the software, let's click on the package and output. ”

The software starts to run automatically, and after about 10 minutes, it stops, and then a dialog box pops up: "The Earth Alarm Clock installation package has been made! ”

Wang Yufei smiled slightly and said: "As you can see, the software has been made, let's see the time, well, it took a total of six minutes and thirty-two seconds!"
