Registrations open Friday, August 26th 12:30 PM GMT-0
The term "Progressive Web App" refers to web applications built with a group of technologies, such as service workers, and push notifications, that can bring native-like performance and user experience to web apps.
You get a chance to have a hands-on whole-day intro workshop into all these exciting new technologies and get started building your own installable, responsive, engaging progressive webapp with the help of experienced mentors from Mozilla
================= Important! =================
This is a hands-on workshop, please Bring-Your-Own-Device (and a charger! :)
Any modern OS would work just fine.
Please also note, we have a very limited capacity so please RSVP only if you can dedicate your full day to the workshop. If you changed your mind - please update your RSVP in order to give a place to people in waiting list.
