Applications are the foundation of the user experience and can be appreciated in all types of Linux environments. It is this reason that building a common app ecosystem is a valuable goal. At the Linux Application Summit (LAS), we will collaborate on all aspects aimed at accelerating the growth of the Linux application ecosystem.
At LAS you can attend talks, panels, and Q&As on a wide range of topics covering everything. From creating, packaging, and distributing apps, to monetization within the Linux ecosystem, designing beautiful applications, and more - all delivered by the top experts in each field. You will acquire insights into how to reach users, build a community around your app, what toolkits and technologies make development easier, which platforms to aim for, and much more.
LAS welcomes application developers, designers, product managers, user experience specialists, community leaders, academics, and anyone who is interested in the state of Linux application design and development!
With that in mind, the topics we are interested in are:
- Gaming
- Creating, packaging, and distributing applications
- Design and usability
- Commercialization
- Platform
- Linux App Ecosystem
