We kept the tracks interactive and very open ended. On both days, we did cover the following topics:
- Introduction to Mozilla
- Mozilla Products and projects
- Ways of contributing to Mozilla
- Intro to Webmaker tools
- Hands-on session on Thimble, Popcorn and X-ray goggles and Appmaker
Both days, we concluded our sessions by giving away some small tokens of appreciation like e T-shirts, badges, stickers etc, to the people who had been extra awesome among the group. We concluded the awesomeness of the two days by cutting a very delicious cake and fighting over it till its last pieces.

Bading goodbye after two days was tough, but after witnessing the enthusiasm of everyone we met during these two events, I am very sure we are going to return soon to Bhubaneshwar for even more awesomeness.
A few people who are two be thanked for making these events sucessful and very memorable are:
- Sayak Sarkar, the co-organizer for this event.
- Sumantro, Umesh and Sukanta from travelling all the way from Kolkata and helping us out with the sessions.
- Rish and Prasanna for organizing these events.
- Most importantly, the entire team of volunteers from both colleges without whom we wouldn't havebeen able to even move a desk.
