− | == Moving from a wrapped HTML app to Native Apps==

| + | <h2>Expert help needed</h2> |
| + | <p>Developing Open Food Facts also requires specialized knowledge and expertise in many different areas:</p> |

| + | <li> |
| + | <h3>Project management</h3> |
| + | <p>We have tons of ideas and you probably have even more, but it is quite a challenge to prioritize them, |
| + | to build a roadmap, and to manage projects when every participant is a volunteer with often limited time available.</p> |
| + | </li> |
| + | |
| + | <li> |
| + | <h3>Design</h3> |
| + | <p>We need help to build a better user experience on the Open Food Facts web site and mobile app, to improve |
| + | their design, to create impactful presentation materials etc.</p> |
| + | </li> |
| | | |
| + | <li> |
| + | <h3>Development</h3> |
| + | <p>We have a lot of development work to do: on the Open Food Facts backend (Perl and MongoDB), API (JSON), |
| + | web site (HTML5, JS, Foundation), iOS / Android / Windows Phone / FirefoxOS apps |
| + | (currently developed in HTML and JS with Apache Cordova / Phonegap), to build new cool reuses etc. |
| + | Our code is on <a href="https://github.com/openfoodfacts">GitHub</a>. |

| + | <p>We need to build local communities in all countries and at the same time unite them globally.</p> |
| + | <p>It is very difficult to bootstrap a local community in a country without living there, so your help |
| + | to find the first very motivated participants is essential. Are you one of them?</p> |

| + | <p>More seriously, there are lot of cool things that users, contributors and reusers do with Open Food Facts, |
| + | it would be great to get more people to know about it. In particular we need help for public |
| + | and <a href="/presse">media relations</a>.</p> |

| + | <h3>Special projects</h3> |
| + | <p>There are lots of interesting and original applications of food open data that we could work on with |
| + | government food agencies, food producers, researchers, universities, schools, NGOs etc. Maybe you already have ideas? |
| + | If you do, please help us to push them forward.</p> |

| |
− | * Photo Mode (it never leaves the camera mode, with a simple tap to take a picture , and there is a button to change product )
