A Two day Workshop has organized by Firefox
Club,JUET Guna at Jaypee University of Engineering and
Technology,Guna on 16th May and 17th May 2015 in collaboration with 'Tachyon'
Technical fest of JUET,which was mainly focusing on web app Development.This 8
hour workshop taught the interested participants about how to develop Firefox
OS App with the help of HTML5,CSS3 and JavaScript.
Our delegate from Mozilla India Mr. Kumar
Rishav who did intern at Google
Summer of Code, 2014 with mozilla organization and presently works as Marketplace Users’ Review Moderator
at Mozilla delivered the workshop. Our another delegate was an software
engineer from Bhopal, Mr Vaibhav Bajaj.
The workshop was way more happening than expected because
the delegates were very ebullient and kept the participants involved and the
participants reciprocated in the same manner. Mr. Rishav taught the students
from the very inception. Developing your own Mozilla Firefox OS App in the very
first & second year of Engineering gives you that #being_a_CS_engineer feel
and to keep that emotion alive we had exciting Mozilla goodies for the participants
who perform exceptionally well. The mentors kept the tabs on the participants
in case they got stuck somewhere and were always available to weed out the can
of worms. Such workshops are often stereotyped for being bromidic but the
delegate duo was well inured and handled the workshop with equanimity and broke
all the stereotypes.
The last hour was the icing on the cake. Participants were
asked to enroot an app of their own and the best three apps were afloated on
the Mozilla Firefox Marketplace for free and their developers were awarded with
attractive Mozilla Tees.
The feedback from the students proved that they were
quenched from the workshop. With bells
on, the entire core team of Firefox Club JUET Guna went out for lunch with a sigh of
relief as their efforts turned out in conducting a benevolent and efficacious
workshop.
