Appdevcon & Appril 2022 dates and call for presentations
It's been 3 years since we last met for Appdevcon & Appril. We have fond memories of that last time in 2019. It was so sad that 2020 had to go online and 2021 was skipped. But we're finally in a state that we can plan another 'real' Appdevcon event! This year, we will organize Appdevcon from June 20-24 2022. The summer weather will hopefully be favourable to the covid situation, and hosting it after Google I/O and Apple WWDC will ensure we can incorporate up to date, current content.

Interview with Steven de Lange from aFrogLeap
Question 1: 12 years of app development, what have you been doing all these years? I haven’t been working on just apps (to keep the record straight). I started off designing and developing Flash websites and banners. After flash died (rip, my dear friend), I shifted towards designing websites with a strong focus on e-commerce. This turned out to be a very educational period because e-commerce obliges you to think about the User Experience more than anything else. After roughly 7 years I jumped into the world of VR to work on some projects that were built for the [...]
Interview with IceMobile’s Bart Soeters
Question 1: 12 years of app development, what have you been doing all these years? Hah! That's a long time, where a lot has happened for me. I remember running Cydia on my first iPod Touch, far before I could write proper software, indicating the true potential of such a platform. Many crazy hacky features seen back than are now available as features of the phones we see today. By the time I graduated I did twice an internship in mobile software development, joining a mobile development company was a dream come truth. Question 2. Tell me bit more [...]

Hier de marketingtermen van 2018 waarbij marketeers niet langer de kop in het zand kunnen steken: Header bidding: een nieuwe real-time bidding manier, uitgevoerd door uitgevers.
