Last weekend a group of our .NET developers took part in an awesome meeting organized by DOU – the Hackathon game! After 24 hours of permanent code writing, Sergey, Kostya Denis and Dima were honored for the #3 product.
Hackathon is a developers' contest which lasts whole day and night. Each team has to produce a working application or a hacking program. Participants are free to choose any language and platform they like. Having fun is the only must :)
Gathering a lot of enthusiastic developers in one place for the whole night turned out to be quite a good idea. Between Xbox tournaments, intense coffee consumption and guitar playing some really nice solutions were produced. The demo began at about 14:00 on Sunday.
You can watch the demo & winner's selection here:
The following projects were nominated:
-
1st place – Obvious Prognosis App
-
2nd place – Traffic Live
-
3rd place – Achthung Polizei! by Binary Studio Team
Our developers were glad to participate. As Sergey says, "Coding all night is not rare for me, but this time it was a really bright new experience due to such a friendly and crowded atmosphere". We are really grateful to our guys for their time, efforts and motivation. Binary Studio is looking forward to more amazing meetings to take part in!
