Beyond building Ubuntu phone apps

Beyond building Ubuntu phone apps

We'll discuss how to add analytics to your Ubuntu phone apps, but still do so in a respectful way and without giving information to third-parties, by using your own Piwik installation to collect data and graph it. We'll discuss advertising in apps, and how to do it when you're not developing for one of the main platforms such as Android or iOS and so you don't have access to a provided "native SDK". We'll discuss payment for apps and how you can do it with Ubuntu, and what information the store gives you about purchases. Presented at SCaLE 14x.
