You never stop to surprise us; we are thrilled with the originality of your projects and the quality of your articles! 🤗

We want to thank you for devoting your time to building a project for the PlanetScale x Hashnode Hackathon. It was great to see OG hackathon participants as well as new faces equally! 👏👏

All the entries were judged based on creativity, product thinking, UI/UX, code quality, best practices, article completeness, and comprehensibility. The entries were judged one by one and manually by the Hashnode and PlanetScale staff.
