Congrats to our 2021 GitHub Actions Hackathon Winners!

#actionshackathon21 #opensource #showdev

For the second year in a row, we co-hosted the GitHub Actions Hackathon with our friends at GitHub.

This contest took place over the last month and challenged the community to create and document usable workflows that utilized GitHub Actions (— existing or newly-built). Participants picked one of five categories for their submissions: DIY Deployments, Maintainer Must-Haves, Phone-Friendly, Interesting IoT, or Wacky Wildcards.

After much deliberation between the DEV and GitHub teams, the final results are in and we're so excited to announce the winners of the 2021 GitHub Actions Hackathon.

Hi @graciegregory

Congratulation to everyone.
And thanks team Dev for such an opportunity.
This was my first hackathon and I learned a lot.
Sorry to ask such a silly question..I did recive the profile badge. But how do I recive the "Dev sticker pack"

Michelle Duke • Jan 25 '22

For the DEV sticker pack, you would have received an email from the DEV team. You would have also received an email from the GitHub team (ie. me 😉 ) on the 5th January regarding your prize.
