Initiatives
(Draft only -- pulled from high-level Webmaker planning doc. Please add & hack.)
Build rich online learning experiences. Like we deliver offline with Maker Party. Create software that helps users a) make content and b) learn / mentor along the way
- Launch Webmaker App on Firefox OS and Android
- Make it easy to create web-native apps and content
- Integrate a chat / social component. Makes it easy for people to learn and mentor using the app.
- Roll this experience back onto the desktop Webmaker.org site
- Consider tightly tying to Firefox (depending on interest)
- Leverage much of what already exists in Webmaker: Webmaker accounts; MakeDrive filesystem; Appmaker brick / web component model; X-Ray Goggles; brand and UX elements
- Target market: learners and mentors, initially on Android and Firefox OS

Partnerships / Collaborations / Needed resources

- Seneca College: continued funding and students from Seneca College to work on the development.
- Marketing and BD: MoCo and MoFo marketing teams for promotion at the top of the funnel (e.g., creating uniques to convert). Also, BD deals with carriers as part of Mobile Opportunity? Need more detail?
- FXOS: the idea of shipping Webmaker App as a default with FXOS has been on the table for a while now. Do we want to do this?
