For Developers

Developing on and for the Maemo platform is straightforward; most newcomers to Maemo platform development will be up and running in an hour or two.

Once you have the Maemo SDK installed, the Developer Guide is a great initial starting point. We also maintain a platform cross-reference.

When you've got a taste of Maemo platform, you'll have a better sense of what specifically you'd like to do next and the Developer Portal will be the place for you.

Maemo platform based on and extends on a lot of the best open source has to offer.

You can see what others are coding on and contribute your own code at garage.
