I’m a programmer. I would like to understand the ecosystem of apps and providers in China so that I can become proficient with them and their integrations.
It is impossible to do that research in English, but I’m also dipping my toes in mandarin. So I’m looking for research h material. A lot. Give me the breadcrumbs to the rabbit hole and I’m all in!
Some questions I’m thinking about are around:
Where should I search for content? What are the main apps people use? How do I find developer documentation? (think developers.facebook.com/, or https://developers.google.com/) What are the most popular frameworks and technologies? Where does it all run? Is it all x86 and x64 and arm? What else is there? Many local spinoffs, like orangepi.org to raspberry pi?
The world is vast and I’m curious.
I’ve sent this to my WeChat friends…
