make an impact

you collaborate with both large and small projects. The former because we use their code every day and the latter because they have fewer contributors, the impact can be greater.

have fun

this is not a typical competition, that's why we work in teams. We want to bring together people who love code as much as we do, the goal is to get to know each other and enjoy doing what we love.

move forward

Contributions speak very well of you, they always serve you to promote yourself or open new doors. Do the tasks with the quality they deserve and if it's your first time, you will surely want to repeat.

•Frequently asked questions

Should I finish the contribution during the week?

Of course, keep in mind the time you have.

Can I make more than one contribution?

Yes, organize yourself well with the team.

Can I offer a contribution that I have already made?

It is strongly requested to create new content for the event; sending old or already finished contributions doesn't make sense.

Can I make changes during the deliberation period?

Yes, you can improve it. The idea is for it to be accepted.

Can we register as a group?

Yes, although each member must register separately. Choose a name for your team and at the time of registration, each person must write it in the form.

Why will there be a prize?

Because most open source contributions are unrewarded and this is our way of supporting it.

Who owns the contributions?

The software generated is free. The contribution will be under the name of the person who uploads it.
