Background

I really like sweet, delicious coffee and thought it would be interesting to see what kinds of coffee drinks are available around the world.

Use Case

This app includes 20 different coffee drinks from different countries. A person can read through the descriptions, view the images and choose a coffee. An overlay will then show where the coffee can be found, two YouTube videos on how to make it and some coffee trivia from Wikipedia.

  • A 'Try another flavor' button that takes one back to the main screen.
