iPhoneDevCamp

If you show me your apps, I'll show you mine...

The first iPhone Dev Camp hosted by Mediamatic BANK was a tremendous success with far more participants than was anticipated. During this day, more than 80 participants taught each other how to make iPhone apps. Everyone from programming newbies to Objective-C masters were welcome.

With:
Peter Robinett

DIY application

For those that are new to the Dev Camp concept, it’s basically a BarCamp-style unconference where developers can get together and master the iPhone platform. Because many of us were new to developing for the iPhone, we were looking to have some experienced mobile developers and a few hardened Cocoa masters train us.

Dev Camp Report

The iPhone Dev Camp started off at ten o' clock in the morning when organizer Peter Robinett surprised the participants with home made pancakes. After a quick introduction both professional and amateur developers kicked off to share their knowledge and ideas on different kinds of applications for the iPhone.

Baking pancakes

Amongst those who were present, were TreasureMyText, MobyPicture and Nameo vCard Exchanger.

After lunch, there was a short presentation held by Makayama.

We're Full

Sorry guys, we have 121 people signed up and I'm afraid that's probably already more than the space can easily manage! If you said you're coming but no longer can come, please change your status on Upcoming so we have an accurate count of many people are coming. There's been such an enthusiastic response that we'll try to have another Dev Camp soon!
