Description:

Android apps are typically cross‑compiled on more powerful computers, which prevents billions of people — especially those with only low‑end phones and limited or no Internet access — from developing the apps they need. This talk introduces Code On the Go, a free and open‑source Integrated Development Environment designed to run natively on low‑end Android devices.

The session will demonstrate how this IDE enables offline app development on small‑screen, soft‑keyboard devices, and will highlight its novel capabilities that remove long‑standing barriers to mobile‑only software creation.

Target Audience:

App developers
