Ho Ho Ho! Google's Santa Tracker is now open source

In April 2015, Google announced that its Santa Tracker, an interactive platform that allows users to follow Santa's journey and engage with various winter-themed games and activities, was made open source and available on GitHub. The Santa Tracker is available as both a web application and an Android app, the latter supporting devices running Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0) and up, featuring a canvas-based graphical launcher and games built with technologies like JBox2D and OpenGL. The Android version also integrates with the App Indexing API for better user engagement through deep linking. For Android Wear, custom watch faces and notifications enhance the user experience. On the web, Santa Tracker utilizes Polymer and Web Animations API to package code into reusable components, optimize for mobile, and support responsive design and localization. By open-sourcing the project, Google aims to inspire developers to create their own innovative experiences.
