Hashnode Christmas Hackathon!
S

I am the Co-Founder of Hashnode. I write (about) code and keep interest in Venture Funding and startups. Feel free to contact me at sandeep@hashnode.com.

Hello Folks!

2020 has been an unusual year for many. But it has also been different in many ways. One of the positive effects of 2020 is that we got to spend more time with family and had a chance to take a break, think and reflect.

Finally, holiday season is here. Many are choosing to stay home and celebrate with family responsibly. There are still 10 days until New Year's day. Why not make it count? Why not finish that side project or complete the cool CLI utility you have been thinking of building?

To motivate you and help you build something cool, Hashnode is doing an impromptu "10 days hackathon"!

How does it work?

  • Build something cool using your favorite language/tool/framework. It can be a small side project or a simple utility/tool to solve a specific problem!

  • Write about it on your Hashnode blog and tag it with "Christmas Hackathon" (#christmashackathon). If you don't have a Hashnode blog yet, set it up here.

  • Tweet to us with the link to your article.

Winners

On 2nd Jan 2021, we'll announce 5 interesting articles and reward each author with $500 Amazon Gift Card (or equivalent).


Let's make 2020 count and utilize the next 10 days building something cool and interesting!

We are looking forward to seeing what you end up building! 🔥

Awesome!

Just wrote an article on Image and Video Background removal using Deep Learning!

Edit: I am having some issues with code blocks in the above article. Some blocks are working properly while some blocks aren't! I am getting weird colors in blocks!
