Summary

Buildkite is a core supporter of the Mobile Native Foundation, established in March 2021, which aims to foster collaboration on open source projects and discussions to enhance processes and technologies for large-scale Android and iOS applications. The foundation addresses challenges faced by developers, such as constantly re-implementing UI frameworks and build systems, by encouraging the development of guidelines, libraries, and tools that improve the mobile development experience. It provides a platform for mobile developers and infrastructure engineers to share experiences and insights, with discussions covering topics like backend-driven UI, CI hardware, and Android build times. Participants are encouraged to engage, share best practices, and connect with other teams through the foundation's GitHub discussions repository.
