A few weeks ago, we ended our annual MobileMakersEdu Winter Screencast Contest. We had great contest submissions once again from MobileMakersEdu high school students from across the globe. What makes this contest 'real world' is the judging—four iOS developer judges from our community volunteered their time to review the submissions and also provide commentary to our students to fuel their growth and learning.
Thank you to the 2024 Winter Contest Judges:
- Jen Vincent-Bennett - iOS & Android Engineer at Active Campaign
- Vik Denik - iOS Engineer at Numerator
- Don Bora - Co-founder MME, Co-founder | Partner at Eight Bit Studios
- Wade Sellers - iOS Developer Mentor at MobileMakersEdu and iOS Developer freelancer
