An application for fishermen, anti-stress virtual colouring books, a program which makes the consumer\u2019s life easier when it comes to splitting the bill \u2013 this is only a drop in the ocean of applications created during the 3rd edition of the night programming contest \u2013 Let\u2019s Code. <\/strong><\/p>\n

The Let\u2019s Code competition, organized by Sii Poland \u2013 the leading provider of IT services and industrial engineering in Poland, is a hackathon encouraging programmers to create socially useful applications.<\/p>\n

The contest consists of two stages. The first \u2013 local stage, takes place simultaneously in 8 cities in which Sii Poland\u2019s offices are located: Warsaw, Gda\u0144sk, Wroc\u0142aw, Pozna\u0144, Krak\u00f3w, \u0141\u00f3d\u017a, Lublin and Katowice. At the local level, a jury composed of experienced programmers and experts, involved in project management and sales, selects the best application. The second stage \u2013 at the national level, engages Internet users, who vote for their favorite app at www.letscode.sii.pl<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This year, the contestants were asked to create an app in one of the following categories: local security, business application, application uniting people. The last one \u2013 application uniting people, proved to be the favourite category among the contestants.<\/p>\n

A contest for true programming enthusiasts<\/strong><\/p>\n

Out of 3 editions of our night programming contest, the last one brought together the largest number of contestants. 167 programming enthusiasts, divided into 44 teams attended the local stage of Let\u2019s Code and in 20 hours created 1 235 325 lines of code.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the second time, that I am engaged in the organization of the contest. I\u2019m very happy that with each edition the quality and the level of development of the applications created is noticeably increasing! The ideas for apps don\u2019t stop surprising me \u2013 <\/em>says Micha\u0142 Jasiorowski, Solutions Architect and a jury member in Let\u2019s Code.<\/p>\n

The winners of the second stage received 10 000 PLN \u2013 33 teams competed. Yet there could be only one winner \u2013 the main prize went to the Friendly Challenge team from Katowice, which received 1039 votes from the internet users! Thanks to this application a group of friends can create challenges and see who is the champion in the chosen area.<\/p>\n
