More than 120 Android developers from all over Ukraine gathered for the Hackathon on the 26th of February, 2011. This was by far the biggest event hosted by Ciklum for Android developers. The gathering has also revealed that the Android platform is quite popular among Ukrainian developers.
Android Hackathon Presentations:
“The experience of my first Android application development” - Andrey Yasinetskiy, developer of Audiko
”How to organize development process with short deadlines” - Andrey Garkavyy, PM, Stanfy
“Importance of usability in Android applications” - Olga Gorenko, Director, Usabilitylab Kiev
Following the presentations, 80 developers were divided onto 16 teams for an application development contest. After an interestingly tight collaboration, 14 functioning Android application prototypes were presented.
According to participant votes, the best application prototype was created by a team that included two Ciklum employees, Artem Vituyk and Alexey Ustenko. The application allows to check the quality of the roads and to share this information with other application users.
