Hey everyone,
The apps don't have much a volunteer developer base when you compare them
to other MediaWiki projects. This is partially because the technology stack
is different (Java/Objective C app, as opposed to PHP website). But we have
lots of eager volunteer developers out there, and we should engage with
them!
To help accomplish the above, I've signed myself up to give an intro to
mobile app development at the MediaWiki Developer Summit in January. It'd
be great if those engineers on the mobile apps team who are interested and
attending the summit could sign themselves up as well, so that we can help
people who are interested. Or, if you're not an engineer but you're
attending and you're curious, sign up too!
