====== Maemo Code Camp 2010 - Getting started ======

On maemo codecamp the programming will happen for Nokia [[http://maemo.nokia.com/n900/|N900]] mobile phone running on [[http://maemo.org/|Maemo]] operating system.
The application development will happen using [[http://esbox.garage.maemo.org/2nd_edition/|ESbox]] - an IDE based on Eclipse, which uses [[ http://www.scratchbox.org/|Scratchbox]] cross-compilation toolkit to compile the programs to desired targets, such as N900.

===== Installing the environment =====
If you want to do the coding using your own computer, you need to install the following:
(Check out the installation instructions for [[http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/Maemo5_Final_Installation|Maemo 5 SDK]] and [[http://esbox.garage.maemo.org/2nd_edition/installation.html| Esbox]]) - Also check the supported operating systems for Esbox from the installation instructions - it has some problems with 64 bit operating systems.
  * Xephyr X11 server
  * Maemo 5 SDK (icludes Scratchbox 1)
  * Nokia proprietary binary packages inside scratchbox
  * Esbox 
 
The Esbox also has tools for installing everything else needed, so you don't need to install everything separately. See: File - New - Other - Maemo installers
