Firefox OS based smartphones are coming. This summer, these phones will be available at select market places for consumers. But don't we all love some free stuff? So, if you are a HTML5 Developer, hear, hear! Those of you who are passionate about open mobile web development and are already busy coding, testing your app idea and clicking on ‘Send to Device’ at the Firefox Simulator, here's your chance to showcase your great idea and skill at building the app and win something for it. If you participate in Mozilla's new "Phones for Apps for Firefox OS" program, you have a chance to get your hands on the <a href="https://www.crazyengineers.com/threads/firefox-os-powered-keon-peak-phones-launched.66979">Firefox OS Powered Keon & Peak Phones Launched</a> as an early bird. Moreover, your app gets featured on the Marketplace as the Firefox OS launch begins - Yeah, the first-mover advantage.
All that the developer has to do is tell Mozilla about the Firefox App he/she would like to build or port. If the proposal is accepted, Mozilla will send you the phone 'Keon' for free. So, if you are already the best at building apps for the competitors - Chrome, webOS, Blackberry WebWorks, or the PhoneGap store, you might definitely want to try your hand at Firefox OS.
You have a wide arena to choose from for the idea of your app. It could be a game, a tool, a utility or even a sports, travel, entertainment or review app. End users based in Latin America, Eastern Europe etc. will only be glad to install and run them. This program will close at the end of May or when the limited supply of Geeksphones runs out and it is important for you to note that - there’s a limit of one phone per app proposal.
Here's where you can apply: #-Link-Snipped-#. Let us know what you're thinking in comments. We love to hear from developers.
