daily.dev Hackathon

Build something for developers, from developers.
72 hours, three tracks, and full access to the daily.dev Public API. Win 1 year of daily.dev Plus!
Three tracks. Pick one.
Each track is a different angle on the daily.dev API. Pick the one that fits what you want to build.
Developer Identity
Tell developers something about themselves.
Your daily.dev profile has a lot in it. What you read, what you save, what you follow, your tech stack, your career. Turn that into something a developer would want to showcase or share.
Content Intelligence
Use daily.dev as a dataset.
daily.dev pulls from 1,300+ sources. Tag feeds, source feeds, search, comments, recommendations. Turn all that data into something useful for other developers.
Content → Action
Turn reading into doing.
Developers bookmark things for later and never come back to them. Build the bridge between reading on daily.dev and actually doing something with what you read.
Format
72 hours, async. Join from anywhere. To submit your submission, post about your project on social media tagging @dailydotdev with your live URL and a short summary.
Prizes
1 year of daily.dev Plus with all the benefits for best submissions. Winning projects featured on daily.dev and social media.
Rules
Public URL required. Must be deployed and accessible on the internet.
