Topic of discussion: Greatfire's AppMaker

Join us during this Glitter Meetup to hear from Greatfire technologists who will share their most recent creation, AppMaker.

AppMaker is based on GreatFire's past successful work with collateral freedom, which was initially funded by OTF. The project allows anybody to create their own Android app with built in anti-censorship technology https://appmaker.greatfire.org

This means that even if your website is blocked in say, for example, China, users in China can download your app and gain access to your content (like VOA Chinese, for example: https://appmaker.greatfire.org/com.voachinese.www) It is free to create an app and it is also free for users to install the app.

Since it's launch in early August, over 500 apps have already been created using AppMaker

GreatFire will be present and available to help answer questions about the project. They can also answer questions about Envoy, the open source library that powers this app https://github.com/greatfire/envoy
