Magento Hackathon Munich

Yesterday the 3rd Munich edition of the Magento Hackathon started. It is already the 7th edition organized by FireGento. What a great accomplishment!

Although I cannot be part of it personally, I’d like to write a few words about it, because the last hackathons in Zürich and Leizpig that I personally attended, were such a great experience. I’d like to make other developers aware of how valuable hackathons are for ones own education and for the developer community in general.

The teams are working on the following self-assigned projects.

Hackathon Projects

  • FireGento Website (Blog) Test E-Mail (Backend)
  • Visualization of Reindexing Progress
  • Extended Inline Translations with Create.js
  • eComDev PHPUnit Improvements
  • Testing Magento with Casper.js
  • Non-Spy Chart (Avoiding Google Analytics)

The results can be seen almost in real time on the official hackathon Github account. You can also follow the official hash tag #mageMuc on Twitter.

I’m looking forward to seeing the results tomorrow night!
