Too often, individuals around the world experience a \u201cread-only\u201d mobile Web, passively consuming content and unable to actively contribute. But when consumers become creators, they\u2019re introduced to social and economic opportunity. And when everyone can contribute equally, the Web becomes a better place.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mozilla.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Webmaker.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-9001\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.mozilla.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Webmaker-600x432.png\" alt=\"Webmaker\" width=\"600\" height=\"432\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.mozilla.org\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/278\/files\/2015\/08\/Webmaker-600x432.png 600w, https:\/\/blog.mozilla.org\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/278\/files\/2015\/08\/Webmaker-300x216.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.mozilla.org\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/278\/files\/2015\/08\/Webmaker.png 646w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Webmaker is Mozilla\u2019s way of addressing the lack of local content in mobile-first markets. Initially available in four languages (Bengali, Brazilian Portuguese, English and Indonesian) and with more coming soon, the app allows individuals across the globe to create original content in their language and relevant to their community. We built Webmaker after <a href=\"https:\/\/webmaker-dist.s3.amazonaws.com\/reports\/research.pdf\">extensive research around the world<\/a>, and it\u2019s informed by hundreds of volunteers. Webmaker belongs as much to these communities as it does Mozilla.<\/p>\n<p>Webmaker\u2019s hallmark is simplicity: there\u2019s no know-how required, no steep learning curve, and no complex toolbars. Users can create a range of content in minutes \u2014 from scrapbooks and art portfolios to games and memes. The intuitive design lets users iterate on the Web\u2019s basic building blocks: text, images and links. With these three fundamentals, our community has already built wonderful creations: how-to manuals, photo albums, digital sketchbooks and wardrobes, exercise handbooks and more. Users are also free to remix and tinker with each other\u2019s Webmaker projects in order to start slowly and steadily expand their creative potential.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_9002\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9002\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mozilla.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/18851982786_8100132893_o.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-9002\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.mozilla.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/18851982786_8100132893_o-600x450.jpg\" alt=\"Teenagers in Bangladesh using Webmaker\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-9002\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Teenagers in Bangladesh using Webmaker<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>How is this version different from the Webmaker beta we released in June? In addition to better performance and a more optimal user experience, shared projects can now be viewed on any platform (mobile or desktop), and users with poor connectivity will experience better performance while offline. Also, content discovery is now location-based \u2014 you can see what others in your community are creating and remixing.<\/p>\n<p>Ready to discover, create and share local content, and learn the basics of the Web along the way?
