I love programming with all my heart. I also love parties. I REALLY love programming parties and that is why I put together HolidayJS every year for the Phoenix development community.
I have compiled a list of starter projects and resources for the attendees to use for the hackathon portion of HolidayJS and I wanted to make it available for everyone since it is actually pretty useful. I intend for this to be a living document up to the event and after so check back every so often to see what is new.
Ionic
Create hybrid mobile apps with the web technologies you love. Free and open source, Ionic offers a library of mobile-optimized HTML, CSS and JS components, gestures, and tools for building highly interactive apps. Built with Sass and optimized for AngularJS.

Famo.us
Famo.us is a free and open source JavaScript platform for building mobile apps and desktop experiences. What makes Famo.us unique is its JavaScript rendering engine and 3D physics engine that gives developers the power and tools to build native quality apps and animations using pure JavaScript. Famo.us runs on iOS, Android, Kindle and Firefox devices and integrates with Angular, Backbone, Meteor and Facebook React.
Firebase
Firebase is a great backend as a service that makes creating realtime applications really easy. Here is a quick 5 minute tutorial to get started as well as a starter project created by yours truly.
StrongLoop
StrongLoop is great for creating RESTful Node.js applications very quickly. Here is a starter project as well as a simple RESTful web application and API that I created.
Auth0
Auth0 makes identity management really easy. Check out the docs and two videos I just shot that shows how easy it is to get up and running.

Microsoft
Microsoft is bringing awesomeness to the open source community. Check out these links for BizSpark, Azure, and AngularJS + Visual Studio!

Lukas,
Thanks for all the hard work so far. I would like to suggest http://mean.io as a resource to use.
You can probably also include some links to host the backend services created by either Firebase or StrongLoop onto something like Heroku so that developers can actually test/showcase their apps on mobile devices instead of showing them on simulators locally because of the local backend on the dev system.
For starters, here’s a link from StrongLoop documentation to host services onto Heroku – http://docs.strongloop.com/display/SL/Heroku
I really like Ionic so far. Been playing with it since returning from LA Code Camp last month.
