Hello everyone!
The new Webmaker app is almost ready! We’re going to have a kickoff event next weekend in São Paulo for creating a team to launch it in Brazil.
What is the new Webmaker? It’s an Android app that allows people to express themselves through narrative-driven web pages, like stories, comics, adventure games, fan pages, catalogues, scrapbooks, galleries, and more. Using the app requires no experience with HTML, CSS, JS or any other coding skills.
Our goal is to launch Webmaker late in July, and to build a team within Brazil to promote, support, localize, test, and create enticing content for the app. On June 13th or June 14th, we’ll bring the Brazil community together to recognize goals, draw up a schedule, and otherwise plan logistics of the campaign.
We realize how short-notice this request is, and we appreciate your quick reply so we can make the event worthwhile. If you’re able to join us, please respond before Monday June 8th, and let me know if you’re available to attend the kickoff event on June 13th or June 14th.
If you’re interested but can’t make the event, don’t worry. We just want to get things started, and there is lots of opportunity to get involved in the details of the campaign afterward.
