Developer Contest for Nokia Asha

Good afternoon, Habr!

We need your brains! :)



We invite you to take part in the contest of developers for the Nokia Asha Touch platform.



If you write in Java or create web applications, in our competition you can get invaluable experience, free promotion and, of course, a chance to get a decent reward for your work. The total prize pool of € 230,000 will be divided between 15 participants. 12 winners will be determined in four main categories (“Music and Entertainment”, “News and Information”, “Games”, “Utilities and Efficiency”): € 25,000 for first place, € 15,000 for the second and € 10,000 - for third place. Three more participants will receive special prizes in the amount of € 10,000 (for the best web application, the best new idea and the best UX).

By the way, the development of the Nokia Asha Touch platform without it is very promising in terms of earnings: in less than a year more than 20.8 million devices were sold.







Taking part in the competition is even easier than it seems. For example, we have very handy tools - Nokia SDK 2.0 for Java applications or Nokia Web Tools 2.3 for Web applications. At the same time, both new applications and ported to the Asha Full Touch platform are allowed to participate.



Contestants will be able to get comprehensive assistance from the Nokia developer community: webinars , including the Ask an Expert session, technical support , extensive UI and UX design support for Java and WebApps platforms , instructions for porting projects from other platforms.



We also recommend participating in a program for premium Nokia developers . If qualifications are confirmed, you will receive a free Asha smartphone and advanced remote access to phones for application testing, as well as $ 198 vouchers for technical support and other benefits .
