The initiative consists of a free, Hungarian-language online course, available for anyone with a computer and internet access. The course aims to teach open web technologies to students in a less bland, more engaging way, through the development of Firefox OS applications. Some partner universities & colleges then recognize the course by awarding university credit points for students (who have successfuly completed the course) that count toward accomplishing their respective studies. | |||
