Madrona Software is exploring the possibility of building a mobile focused, high performance developer team in Kampala, Uganda that is focused on lean & XP practices, continuous improvement, continual delivery, and test driven development. In partnership with the Village, AirSave Uganda, General UI and Mawazo, we will be hosting a hack-a-thon to be able to engage the developer community and research this idea. Hack-A-Thon Theme: "Mobile First" Traditionally applications were developed for the desktop and later adapted to mobile as an after thought. Today, that trend has inverted. With 1.2 billion mobile devices, it isn't merely a trend, niche or something in the future. Mobile is the present. The theme of this Hack-A-Thon is "Mobile First". Lets see what you can build for "Mobile First" as an iOS app, Android app or Responsive Web App.
