The content is quite substantial, you can directly click on the directory on the right to jump to the module you are interested in! No matter what questions you have, you can join the WeChat group to get help~
The 2023 TiDB Future App Hackathon is here! This year’s Hackathon theme is: Code, Innovate & Build Amazing Data Applications —— unleash your creativity, build groundbreaking applications, find your teammates globally, experience the latest and coolest Serverless technology, and win a total of $36k in prizes!
This competition requires participants to develop applications based on the TiDB Serverless version. TiDB Serverless is built for large-scale transactions, real-time analytics, mixed workloads, and applications with traffic surges, and can automatically scale to meet real-time demands. Developers can deploy and configure a fully functional Serverless TiDB database with just a few clicks. TiDB Cloud Serverless is highly compatible with MySQL, allowing developers to continue using their familiar MySQL development frameworks and tools.
Whether you are interested in data, artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, cross-platform development, or any field of software engineering, at the 2023 TiDB Future App Hackathon, you can fully unleash your imagination and creativity, and building scalable, powerful, high-performance applications on TiDB Serverless will be easier than ever!
Registration is now open, accept this invitation from TiDB, innovate with us in the world of code, experience the charm of Serverless, and create your own Data Application!
Participation Benefits
- Participants will receive 5GB of TiDB serverless cloud resources, and if usage exceeds 5GB, they can apply for an additional $100 Credit (worth over 700 RMB according to the exchange rate).
- The 60 teams that pass the preliminary review will receive a limited edition TiDB hackathon gift package (those who have received gifts from previous years know that each year’s new peripherals come with new surprises!).
