About the challenge
refine is a React-based framework for the rapid ✨ development of CRUD web applications. It eliminates the repetitive tasks demanded by CRUD operations and provides industry standard solutions for critical parts like authentication, access control, routing, networking, state management, and i18n. refine shines on data-intensive applications like admin panels, dashboards, internal tools and storefronts.
We're proud to have reached thousands of developers who used refine in our first year, and we couldn't have done it without an open source community! To celebrate this achievement with the community, we are excited to announce the launch of the first hackathon event.
This hackathon is an excellent opportunity for developers to showcase their skills and learn refine!
We are giving $2100 in total and special gifts along with limited edition swag kits!
We can't wait to see what amazing projects the participants will build projects using refine.
