The theme is….“The one thing”: Double your development speed!
Everyone has experienced “the ONE thing": Imagine, you're using a framework that you already know upside-down. Everything seems to work, until one thing happens - you're now stuck on the issue that you already faced before. You have faced this issue hundreds of times! It might be a bug, a missing helper or a code generator, or an architecture design flaw that forces you to spend more time and write more code. That is “The One Thing”.
If it gets fixed you would be so much more efficient at your work! But you have faced it so many times and felt helplessness.So now it’s your time!
It’s time to change Spryker PHP Framework so you get maximum benefits from it and become faster at all the hard work you do! From our side we guarantee that the best implementations will be reviewed and released by our Core Team, and the best ideas will be taken into the roadmap evaluation!
Note: We'll award prizes according to this theme but you are always welcome to choose to work on something else if you like! Maybe there's an existing Hack project you'd like to continue, or something else Spryker-related that interests you…go for it! :)
Winning Criteria
Value/Impact: Potential of decreasing feature development time.
Realistic: What’s the chance to realize the value in Spryker project scenarios.
Innovation: A solution with cutting-edge technology, patterns or designs will be valued higher.
Note: Typically solving 1x issues but on 100% would have higher impact, than a generic solution for all problems addressing them just partially.
This is what else awaits you….
- Meet fellow developers and make new connections 🤝
- Get together in diverse teams and show off your skills 🧑🏽💻
- Enjoy the ride with great food and drinks throughout the day 🥤🍕
- Contribute to our open platform with your greatest ideas 🧠
- Win big: Win prizes, have your best implementations reviewed and released and/or taken into our roadmap evaluation, and have the chance to be featured at Excite 2024 later this year 🤩
