Developer Camp

Developer Camp: The World's Best Hackathon
10 years of pioneering in Open Source. 10 years of making real apps and services that people use. 10 years of friendship, support, and community. 10 years of success and profit on the App Store and everywhere else.
It is time to celebrate our inclusive, diverse, and equal-opportunity society with a huge event that honors our past and pivots into the future.
The theme of this special event is: Music, Photography, and the Creative Arts.
Who: Developers, designers, musicians, artists, entrepreneurs, testers, and makers. The elite corps of <A HREF="https://devca.mp/counsel-882c44415df" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Developer Camp Counselors</A> — winners of past events, and distinguished members of our community from the Bay Area stand ready to teach and help.

How: Our sponsors offset the cost of attendance, and provide valuable prizes for participants. Our new sponsor OCL has an SDK for iOS specifically built for musicians and artists to collaborate with developers. 
Build an app that includes copy-written content without hassles. Discover a robust, light framework that automatically handles sourcing, identification, reporting, and automates licensing for your users—without having to worry about contracts, accounting, or securing permission. The Totem SDK from OCL allows access to a huge catalog of music and artwork via a simple iOS framework that allows you to write code in Swift, Objective C, or Node.js. The creators of this technology (based on the same math that powers blockchain) will be at our event to explain it all, and enable you to <A HREF="http://what.ocl.is/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">build experiences we have not seen before</A>.

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 engineer has attended 100+ hackathons

<DIV>Of course you can use bathrooms, but there is no shower available. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>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. </DIV>
