The Upstack Hackathon 2019 is in line with the motto “Building a community that matters”. Collaboration and sharing experience in the domain of programming is the main objective of this year’s hackathon.
Main idea: The Upstack Meet-up platform/app
Upstack has a huge community of software professionals (#remotewarriors), a lot of which travel around the globe. By creating the Upstack Meet-up platform/app, we would like to encourage them to meet each other, while traveling and of course become friends, helping our community become more close-knit. Another cool benefit would be that users can also couch surf using this app. #coachsurfing done right!
The platform/app will allow users to see the map of the world, find #remotewarriors in locations that they want to visit, connect and meet up in those locations.
Teams will have 1 business week, prior to the event, to work together:
- to come up with an idea
- to design their idea
- to create a short plan that shows the effectiveness of their product and what makes it unique
Talking about teams…
We are proud to announce that this year’s hackathon has no less than 6 teams and a ton of enthusiasm!
Team 1 — “Team one or won”
Team 2 — “Rush Hour Hong Kong”
Team 3 — “Expansion”
Team 4 — “Shift + 4 = $”
Team 5 — “On Our Way”
Team 6 — “Straight off the Couch”
Now that we have presented the teams, we only have to show you some cool behind the scenes pictures!
The plans are in progress — and we are keeping an eye on the participants; creativity is fully present, many cool ideas that can turn into real projects in the future! So stay tuned… More updates will come!
We wish them good luck once again!
