AWS has launched mobile applications for its Builder Center on both iOS and Android platforms. These apps allow users to access trending articles, over 600 AWS Skill Builder courses, and manage hands-on workshops with free sandbox environments directly from their mobile devices. Users can sign in with their AWS Builder ID to maintain sessions and follow AWS Heroes, Community Builders, and User Group Leaders.
The Builder Center also introduced new features, including Polls, which enable community members to ask questions and gather anonymous votes with live results and discussion. Additionally, the Zero to Shipped hackathon is open from September 18 to October 2, offering participants a chance to build and deploy applications on AWS for a share of a $28,000 prize pool, including AWS credits and swag bundles for winners.
