DEV Weekend Challenge
A short-form challenge that fits into your weekend!
We're launching something brand new: our first-ever DEV Weekend Challenge! 🎉
This is a short challenge format that mirrors a more traditional hackathon, designed to fit into your weekend. We're giving you a heads up now so you can mark your calendars!
How It Works
Our challenge prompt will be revealed at launch. From there, you'll have the weekend to build and submit. That's it!
Because our community spans every timezone on the planet, we've set the window so that everyone around the world gets at least a full weekend to participate.
Important Dates
- Launch Time: Friday, Feb 27 3:00 AM UTC
- Submissions Due: Monday, Mar 2 7:59 AM UTC
