Developer Camp 2019
Developer Camp: The World's Best Hackathon Square, Getaround, Temple Run, OAuth, TestFlight, push.io, and Zūm —each of these companies have foundations at Developer Camp over the past twelve years.

It is time to celebrate our inclusive, diverse, and equal-opportunity society with a huge event that gives everyone a chance to succeed. This event is a combination of community support, cooperation, and an idea contest that lasts 48 hours from opening doors to closing ceremony.  The theme of this special event is: Foundational Technologies, such as AI / Machine Learning, AR / VR, and bitcoin.   Who: Developers, designers, musicians, artists, entrepreneurs, testers, and makers. The elite corps of Developer Camp Counselors — winners of past events, and distinguished members of our community from the Bay Area stand ready to teach and help. What: 48-Hour hackathon for iOS, bitcoin, and the Web. This collaborative event, featuring superstar hackers and designers to help everyone learn to code, build custom hardware, and generally make ideas come to life. This year's theme is: foundational technologies. Watch the video. When: February 1st to 3rd, 2019 (Friday evening through Sunday). See our schedule and details. Where: Zūm Offices, 275 Shoreline Drive, Redwood City, CA 94065—open all weekend, and overnight both nights   Why: There is a huge opportunity to bring diversity to the technology industry. Women and girls, men and boys, we all deserve more opportunities to start coding using simple, powerful tools. Watch our Women of iOSDevCamp video. How: Our sponsors offset the cost of attendance, and provide valuable prizes for participants.  This is a place for families and children to collaborate as well. Learn more about our upcoming event. This event has catalyzed the launch of award winning startups (like Getaround and Foodspotting), the formation of founder dream teams (Square), and the building of a talented and collaborative community of developers.  Out-of-town guests are welcome to join our inclusive event. Though projects will include both solo and team efforts, we encourage attendees to build teams of diverse expertise — business ideas, marketing, design, testing, coding, and back-end development. All attendees should be prepared to participate in the development of a project during the event. Scholarships are available to encourage diversity, and mentors are available. “It’s one of the most pure and original hackathons.  People come from all around and really just hack on something, meet new people, cherish the relationships that they create here—and go out to create huge companies. The developers we’ve met at Developer Camp are among the best in the world. Some of them have gone on to join our team. We’re excited to be supporting the event again this year… Developer Camp is the best.” -Zac Bowling, Google engineerhas attended 100+ hackathons Developer Camp sponsor/participant The event will feature: — Meetup on Friday with Refreshments– Catered Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner (Saturday and Sunday)– Open Mic for Questions– Educational Sessions by Sponsors– Participant-led Ad Hoc Sessions– Saturday Night Gaming– Hackathon Contest with Prizes– Everyone Leaves with Something Schedule Friday 1700 — Doors Open1700–1800 — Mixer1800–1900 — Orientation and Keynote 1830—Healthy Dinner1900–2100 — Idea / Mentorship Pitches2200 — Overnight—Camp out on site* Saturday 0900–1000 — Continental Breakfast1000–1200 — Introductions & Keynote 1300–1400—Healthy Lunch plus Q&A 1200–2200 — Hacking and Learning with Informational Side Sessions1800–1900 —Dinner2200 -Overnight—Camp out on site* Sunday 0900–1000 — Continental Breakfast1000–1400 — Prepare for Hackathon1200 — Hackathon Entries due1300–1400 — Family Style Lunch1400–1700 — Hackathon Showcase1700–1730 — Awards1730–1800 — Pack It Up1900 — Doors Close We are currently seeking: — Your Registration — Cash Sponsors — Hackathon Prize Donations  To get involved with the above, please email team@devca.mp. See you there! Developer Camp OrganizersDom Sagolla, Dan Zeitman, and Persiana Cota * A note on Camping Out: Our host has invited us to stay overnight on Friday and Saturday. Doors close at 10 each night, which means that you can exit but not enter again until 9am the next day.  Of course you can use bathrooms, but there is no shower available.  Bring your own gear, including air mattress or pad in case the couches are taken. There will be plenty of space but not much in the way of comfort.  Please introduce yourself to us when you arrive on Friday and we will be happy to help in any way we can.
