iPhoneDevCampUA through the eyes of a helptimer

    July 18 in Kiev was the first, but super-duper barcamp from the community of iPhone developers. Although the event was called a mini-camp in the announcement , the topic is very interesting and gathered nearly half a thousand pre-registrations and 350+ real visitors. A tackle of the final summarizing event report.

    The event was divided into 3 streams, so the user had to choose. I did not have to think long, because there were a limited number of comfortable seats in the forefront, and the audience did not accommodate everyone - the organizers did not expect such an interest in the topic.

    The bulk of visitors did not have much experience developing for the iPhone platform, so registration issues in the iPhone Developer Program and optimal withdrawal schemes for earned money. Sledges have been prepared since the summer;)

    During the whole event for the benefit of visitors worked a whole team of receptions. On the tables there were always snacks and in the coolers there was cold and hot water. Coffee / tea for cookies included. At registration, it was possible to order lunch, which was delivered directly to the place.

    I almost did not attend the reports, as organized HelpTeam and ran like a mad cat. Impressions from what you hear can be found in the links below.

    Upon completion of the reports followed afterparty at the nearest Dockers Pub. Speakers and organizers mingled with visitors and continued talking with a glass of beer. I was able to catch my breath and chat with the people. For a long time I was not enough and tired went home.

    With one of the reports, in the form of an article, the habr could already get acquainted (Principles of developing software for the iPhone using an accelerometer, Alexander Krakovetsky sashaeve ).

    Now video materials have become available , and slides were even more on the site.

    The most important thing is that such meetings will be regular in order to exchange experiences . The next one has already been scheduled and will take place on September 5th.
