10 things you need to know before implementing cryptography
Even when developers create apps with security in minds, protect user secrets, and don’t reveal unencrypted data, attackers can find ways to bypass these security measures by exploiting architectural weaknesses and unobvious, yet very simple vulnerabilities. We will talk about several such weaknesses, and try to understand what needs to be done before implementing sophisticated security instrumentation. (Talk in English)

Discussion: Shodan and the art of modern hacking
Discussion on the topic of modern hacking, how the scariest search engine in the world helps hackers find targets to exploit, and how researchers are using it for threat landscape analysis. During the discussion there will be live demos of how easy it is to find millions of vulnerable devices, how many private cameras are open to everyone, and how to control hundreds of solar farms at once. (EN/CZ – it's up to you 🙂

How to build an airplane
Since the high-school, he was interested in building and flying manned airplanes. He started flying the microlight airplanes (ULL/LSA), became an active member of the Czech Microlight Team and flew several international championships as both the pilot and the navigator. Petr participated in several aircraft building projects (Hi-Max, Mobydick D8, LK2 Sluka) and will guide us through the process of having an idea of building an airplane until the first flight made by a test pilot.

Time is money: Optimization of scrolling RecyclerView
When you look at the applications on your phone, much of the content is displayed in scrollable components. List of messages, Facebook timeline, contacts, notes, Twitter, photos, practically everything. An infinite list of something. And it’s not always fluid. The complexity of applications is increasing and scrolling is still choppy. And programmers are trying and trying. Or maybe not trying? In my lecture I would like to guide you through the basics of RecyclerView, teach some tips and tricks and what to avoid through the latest developments in RecyclerView, such as prefetch. I firmly believe that the lecture will be an interesting and in the end your phones, tablets and refrigerators will be beautifully fluid.

Account manager & sync: I’ve been doing some syncing…
Storing account information is a common challenge many app developers face, and is often tackled in tailored solutions. Isn’t there some strategy to store account credentials in a centralized place? What about multiple accounts, like Twitter? And when should or could I synchronize data? Android offers a powerful account manager. Let’s explore the possibilities and lay out an architecture for engineering an Android app based on accounts.

Animation in iOS or Basics and Interesting Things in the Magical World of Animation
Martin will guide us through the wonderful world of iOS animations! He'll show how to use Swift Playground for prototyping and testing (not only) of animations, what can be conjured with CoreGraphics and CoreAnimation frameworks and how it will be used in combination with IBInspectable and IBDesingable and appce. He'll start from the basics and try to get to something even more interesting and more advanced, so that everyone finds something they like. For application knowledgem, it is necessary to have basic knowledge of Swift language, but the talk is intended for anyone. Who would not like to look at some nice animation, right?

Everything you ever wanted to know about CI and were afraid to ask
Continuous Integration is a very important, but often neglected topic. Most people know this term as something that is complex and belongs in major companies. The opposite is true. CI can be used by a freelancer or a small company very easily as well. Whether you want to use it for testing, deployment, delivery of builds or notifications, it will save you a lot of time and money. Dominik has been focusing on the issue of CI for mobile development for more than 2 years, and with his colleagues he has produced a CI pipeline for iOS, Android and backend, which saves hundreds of minutes a day to the whole team. In his talk he focuses both on mobile platforms, and backends and frontends, so that everyone can find something to their liking.

Xamarin, IoT and Azure
On a sample application written in Xamarin we'll practically introduce the architecture and links to individual services in Azure, which are key from the perspective of IoT: • Mobile application written using Xamarin for Android, iPhone and Windows Phone, which serves as a field gateway, but also for displaying data • Azure Mobile App as a backend for a mobile application, enabling authentication, but also rapid development with the assistance of Easy Tables and Easy API and Push Notifications • HockeyAPP for distributing mobile applications for testing and collection of errors • Application Insights for monitoring • IoT Hub, which will help in collecting data from end equipment (microcontrollers and field gateways) • Stream Analytics, which enables real-time analysis of large amounts of data • Power BI for smart imaging • Services for persistent storing of data such as Azure Storage or Azure SQL Database We'll look at how you can connect your car via the OBD-II to the Cloud and track the speed, consumption, revolutions, and other values in real time. Everything is open source of course.

Push notifications in bulk
Did you know that push notifications can triple the number of application startups? Or that applications that support push notifications have up to 70% greater probability that they'll survive on the device longer than 60 days? The ability to receive push notifications should therefore be specific to each application. We will show you how to do it on the client and the server.
