Quality

Although we understand that it is very short time to create a quality contribution. Lean on your team to help you complete each task.

FAQs

What profile or background should I have?

You should be a developer with knowledge of JavaScript or TypeScript. It is not necessary to have previously contributed to open source code.

Do I have to finish my contribution during the weekend?

It is important to choose tasks that you think you can complete in one weekend. After the Jam, you can always continue to improve your contribution which will be great for your portfolio.

Can I make more than one contribution?

Yes, but time is limited, so this may not work in your favour.

Can I submit a contribution I have already made?

It is strongly advised to create new content for the event; using old or already finished contributions would not make a meaningful new contribution.

Can I make changes during the deliberation period?

Yes, you can continue improving it with the aim of it being accepted to the library.

Can we register as a group?

Yes, although each member must register separately. Choose a team name, and when registering, all members must fill in that name in the form in order to be teamed up.

Why will there be a prize?

Because most contributions to open source are unpaid and this is our way of supporting the cause.

Who is the owner of the contributions?

The software that is generated is open source and free. The contribution will have the name of the person who submitted it.
