Firefox OS App Workshops
What: A series of small hands-on technical workshops designed for skilled app developers in key launch countries. The goal of these day-long events is to help individual developers and small teams complete an HTML5 web app for Firefox OS or migrate their existing HTML5 web app to the Firefox OS phone and into the Firefox Marketplace.
Participants must apply to attend, and will be asked to demonstrate Javascript expertise and/or past experience building web apps and working with web APIs.
This program is designed and organized by Mozilla's Tech Evangelism team as part of the Firefox OS launch wave with support from Apps & Marketplace and Firefox OS engineering.
