Music + code = a chance to win $5k? We're hosting an online music-themed hackathon!

🎡 Repl.it Online Music Hackathon

This one is a little different from hackathons we've done in the past:

  • We're open to any kind of submission, so long as it's built on Repl.it and incorporates music in some way.
  • We have one stellar judge, Tom Lehman, the CEO of Genius.
  • Most exciting of all: our grand prize is $5,000 (with $2,500 and $1,00 second & third prizes!)

You better get building! We already have some great submissions:

I've got something really awesome in the works since the past two months that might fit here. However I feel there's still a lot of heavy lifting to do. Coincidentally, Genius plays a huge role in it so I wish this were a little late 😌

Take this an opportunity to learn! A lot of people use our jams to learn new langs... and they surprise themselves with what they can create :) Feel free to hit me up at contact@repl.it if you want ideas or advice!

I've always wanted to try building something with its base as music (and have been delaying it too).

This sounds great, will definitely try to come up with something!
