The Supabase Hackathon

Summary

Following the conclusion of Launch Week II: The SQL, Supabase announced its first week-long hackathon running from July 30 to August 6, 2021. Participants can enter individually or in teams of up to five to build any open-source tool, library, or application using Supabase. The judging criteria evaluate creativity, visual appeal, technical execution, and the integration of Supabase features across five distinct prize categories.

Winning teams receive limited edition Olympic gold and silver themed shirts while retaining full ownership of their intellectual property.
