How movies earn a B grade at RunPee (with mostly the Rock as an example)

Jaws

Weekly progress diary on RunPee:NX
We are rebuilding the RunPee app from scratch using Google Flutter. Here’s a brief report on our weekly progress:

There isn’t much newness to see this week. I’ve mostly been working on the UserSettings database. This is where settings such as the fontSize and such are stored.

I’m also finishing up work on the Timer so that if the operating system closes the RunPee app while the Timer is running you can restart the app and it will jump right back to where you left off. That’s a crucially important feature, don’t you think?
