All sorts of different apps. Some will be websites developed or updated using WordPress, Wix, or SquareSpace. Other projects may involve creating or udpating an ASP.NET or PHP-based web application, or a mobile app, moving data from one database to another, or perhaps configuring SalesForce or Little Green Light for a nonprofit. See the list of projects.
Yes. Seattle GiveCamp is a great place to learn from your peers. We are happy to have software professionals of all types and levels. Each team will be led by a more experienced developer.
No.
Yes. We will NOT be providing computers for people to work on. You will need to use your own computer. Most projects can be worked on from either Windows or Mac.
Here's how it works...
All weekend (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday). See next question for hours.
We will be open from 6pm to 11pm on Friday, 8am to 11pm on Saturday, and 8am to 6pm on Sunday. See schedule for more details.
You will need to wrap things up and turnover the project deliverables to the nonprofit by around 2pm on Sunday. But you'll want to stick around for the closing ceremonies where you get to show off your project to the other GiveCampers, eat cupcakes, and celebrate what you've accomplished in one weekend.
No! The GiveCamp model is that you are done on Sunday. However, if you like what the nonprofit organzation is doing and wish to continue to help them after Seattle GiveCamp, we won't stop you, but any arrangements are between you and the nonprofit organzation.
It's an online event so... :)
Fun & Exciting!
We can't imagine not learning something.
