Plugin / Theme contest!

vatsal

So we'd like to start organizing a new plugin / theme contest - probably will make it a week-long affair (and announce it a lot earlier in advanced). The ol' plugin weekends were a real fun thing but maybe it's time to get a bit more serious and offer an actual decent set of prizes.

This is just the sign-up thread. Please let us know if you're interested by replying. The prize(s) will depend on the amount of pre-signups we get. If you know any developer friends, get them in here!

I'll update this thread over the next few days with what we have in mind regarding prizes and timeline.

Sponsors

Prizes

1 x $50 AMEX Gift card to the overall winner ($35 USD value)

1 x Google Chromecast to the winner of each category (best plugin, best theme, etc)

If this has not started already, I'd like to join as well. I would also fit into the newbie category as this would be my very first nodebb plugin.

I will try to do a light theme... Maybe foundation 5 :3 !

I'll tell you right now, if you figure out how to use foundation as an alternative framework to bootstrap for NodeBB, you will get a lot more from us than the above prizes I know it's doable, but it will take work, that's for sure!

@Technowix NodeBB uses templates.js written by @psychobunny
You can learn using it pretty fast by reading the NodeBB docs about this
