Announcing the winners of Codegeist 2020

[#1]

Hey team!

We brought back Codegeist in a big way this year, and today, we’re thrilled to announce the winners. 🎉

Thank you to everyone who participated in Codegeist 2020. This year, we got to see our developer community in action during our biggest ever Codegeist – with over 1,300 participants, 300 app submissions and $315k in prizes. Each submission solved for key challenges: from productivity to project management, to DevOps for distributed teams and even ways to manage your favorite craft beer selections. The focus and dedication to build production-ready apps in just eight weeks paired with the creativity and passion behind each app is inspiring, especially during the unprecedented times we live in today.

And now, the winners 🥁 🥁 🥁

We were looking for apps in two tracks:

• Built with Connect: Production-ready apps and integrations for Atlassian Cloud tools, including Jira, Confluence and Bitbucket

• Built with Forge: Trusted, scalable apps enabling developers to try out our new cloud app development platform

And for bonus prizes, participants were even able to use the Trello customization platform to build Trello Power-Ups. Each submission was evaluated based on its strengths in three key areas:

1. Quality: The creativity and originality of the idea

2. Implementation: How well the idea was executed

3. Potential impact: The extent to which the solution can help the most Atlassian users

The winners will share $315,000 in cash prizes, along with receiving official Atlassian Developer swag packs given to all eligible submitters.
