SMARTDevNet presents HTML5 DevDay Davao


Saturday, July 21, 2012 from 8:30 AM to 8:30 PM (GMT+0800)

Davao City, Philippines



HTML5 DevDay Davao is a one-day developer event and hackathon hosted by the SMART Developer Network (SMART DevNet), the developer community for Smart Communications, Inc.'s technology platform and, the University of Southeastern Philippines (USEP). We're inviting the existing and aspiring HTML5 enthusiasts to create an HTML5 web or mobile app in the afternoon after a morning of HTML5 talks from HTML5 practitioners.
HTML5 DevDay Davao is open to all developers especially those based in Davao and in Mindanao. This is a FREE event, no charge for admission, but registration is required.

HOW TO REGISTER FOR THE EVENT
1. Register via the Eventbrite page. http://html5devdaydavao.eventbrite.com
2. Join our Facebook group at http://facebook.com/groups/smartdevnet to get more info about the event as these are announced.

HOW TO JOIN THE HACKATHON
 1. Form a team of 2-4 members in advance. If you don't have a team going to the hackathon, you are encouraged to find other hackathoners who don't have any teams yet. If you still don't have a team just before the hackathon begins, the organizers wil try to find you a team. A team must have a minimum of two members.

2. Join our Facebook Group at https://facebook.com/groups/smartdevnet/ - we will be announcing a Hackathon Signup page here where you will need to provide details of a) your app name and description, b) the team name, and c) your team members.

3. Get ready with your ideas for an HTML5 app. Teams are allowed to have pre-work. You can also start working on your HTML5 app on the day of the hackathon itself.

4. At the end of the hackathon, all the groups registered for the hackathon will need to present their app via a live demo. The order of the presentations will be drawn by lots. Teams who are not registered cannot do a live demo and will not be eligible for any of the prizes.

5. We encourage everyone to join a team - even if you registered just to observe, you are strongly encouraged to be a participant-observer.
