Status of Scripture Study Plus

I decided to keep a status update on Scripture Study Plus, what the advances are week by week.

To Start off with, right now the program is in a currently unusable state. So far we have a base graphical design, and some underlayment for some of the functionality. I think I have decided to go with the JavaDB(Apache Derby). It is embeddable across all platforms, and the drivers come with java.(as of 6 or later) Some of the most pressing things to do are:
  1. Connect to an embedded database. (This is my top priority)
  2. Reliably download the scriptures from online.
  3. Connect the UI to the database.
  4. Make notes workable.
  5. Make highlighting workable
  6. Make rudimentary search work.
  7. Make an installer for the program.
I would to have the installer done when notes are done. That is pretty much my status report for now. I will hopefully have something to report next week.
