refine + DEV Hackathon Winners, Announced!

In June, we announced a challenge on DEV, in partnership with our friends at refine: the refine + DEV 2023 Hackathon.

Our brilliant participants were challenged to build brand new apps using refine, and optionally, Supabase and Material UI. Submissions were to be filed in one of five categories: Best Overall Project, Most Visually Pleasing, Most Technically Impressive, Best Project using Supabase, or Best Project using Material UI.

It's never easy for contest judges to pick just one Grand Prize winner per category and 10 runners-up and this time was no different. Even so, judges from the DEV and refine teams managed to pick our winners and I'm excited to share them with you today!

Let's take a look at the winning projects for the refine + DEV Hackathon!

Best Overall Project: @abdellah711

Most Visually Pleasing: @brindashree

Most Technically Impressive: @asyncerror

Best Project using Supabase: @dariuspasca

Best Project using Material UI: @ansellmaximilian

All Grand Prize Winners will receive:

  • $1,000 USD gift card or equivalent 🤑
  • $300 USD credit to the DEV Shop 😎
  • DEV Sticker Pack ✨
  • DEV “refine + DEV Hackathon” Grand Prize profile badge 🏆

And, our 10 Runners-Up, in random order!

All runners-up will receive:

  • $250 USD gift card or equivalent 💰
  • $150 USD credit to the DEV Shop 🌈
  • DEV Sticker Pack 💻
  • DEV “refine + DEV Hackathon” Runner-Up profile badge 🌟

Participants

All participants with a valid project will receive a DEV Sticker Pack and a “refine + DEV Hackathon” participant profile badge. 🎉

To everyone who submitted a project for this hackathon, we're giving you a huge round of applause. In the process of building your project, you sharpened your skills while learning something new. That's something to be very proud of.

EDIT:
Our team will follow up with all winners and participants with an email about their prizes, gift codes, and stickers by Friday, August 11th.


Great work, everyone! We hope you had a blast participating in the refine + DEV Hackathon.

Wow! What an honor! I express my deep gratitude for being recognized with the "Most Technically Impressive Project" award. This recognition is truly meaningful to me, and it fills me with joy to know that the project has been selected.

I extend my thanks to Refine; on this journey, I quickly and efficiently learned the ability to use pre-built resources, saving a significant amount of my time. Supabase greatly simplified the process of authentication, data storage, and asset management. MUI provided me with the means to create the admin interface and hotsite in an aesthetically pleasing manner. The DEV Community, a vibrant and supportive community, allowed developers like me to share their experiences, knowledge, tutorials, and valuable tips.

Congratulations to all the winners, and to everyone who participated. If you managed to submit your project, that was already a victory!

I look forward to continuing to explore these technologies and soon sharing my expertise here. Once again, my sincere thanks for this honorable award. I think I'll finally be able to upgrade my laptop now!
