Next week, on March 17 and 18, Couchbase Mobile Engineers and the author will participate in Droidcon, a developer-focused mobile conference in San Francisco that specializes in Android development. The event offers attendees the opportunity to learn from industry experts about designing and developing Android applications using modern best practices. The author will deliver both a talk and a workshop, with the talk titled "What’s Peer-to-peer (P2P) and How to Create Offline Mobile Apps," which will cover the fundamentals of offline-first mobile applications and peer-to-peer syncing to eliminate the need for a server. The workshop, "Building the Kitchen Sync, an Android Workshop," will provide participants with hands-on experience integrating Couchbase Mobile into Android applications, revisiting concepts from the talk and incorporating Couchbase Sync Gateway and Couchbase Server. Attendees are encouraged to visit the Couchbase booth for some swag.
