   I have written an application running on my Pebble watch that pulls the floorplan and aliases and builds menus to control the Domus connected devices and lights from my watch. 

  Are there any trademark/marketing or other rules on how I describe how it works with Domus?

  The app is functioning, but I need to put in more error handling code for when something goes wrong.

  It's my first non-demo pebble application.

James,

Awesome to hear you are writing an app for the Pebble Smartwatch that connects to domus.Link. domus.Link itself is open source but the name is copyrighted to Istvan Cebrian who is the original author, see here: http://domus.link.co.pt/license/ . There would not be any rules for your app as it is not something we wrote just the reference to domus.Link should be to the website I just listed. Always happy to see new development for it.

I just got a Pebble this summer and love it... I have done a bit of work on modifying some of the open source apps for my own use for messaging. If you would like I am available for questions.

Thanks

Brad

I have the app working completely for on and off, I still need to
add 'dim' and 'bright' support as well as adding proper icons and better
error handling support.

I've had my pebble since the beginning of October and programming
it is like going home to my embedded C programming roots. My problems
have always been on the javascript side as I haven't done much
javascript in my career.

I'm not sure if there's an easy way to install .pbw files to the
pebble, but if there is I have my current version shared at
http://domuscfg.dhlake.com/domus.pbw alongside the config page.

I started with a domus light control app because it was relatively
simple and would still cover all the functionality that the app I'm
working on next will need, a fitness tracker that syncs.

James,

It is indeed just like old times with the Pebble. Working in C, doing your own mem management, not many functions to use.... but it is fun of course. For error handling, I don't know if you looked at the framework I built for the Android app as it deals with any issues as well.

Regards,

Brad

Haven't looked there yet, I was spending my time understanding the
messaging between the phone and watch and learning enough javascript to
write a queued messaging framework.

It's way better than the last smartwatch app I wrote, it had to be in
S1C88349 assembly and had a massive 2K of free memory. C way easier
than that.
