OpenShift hackathon!
Details
Me and Jacob Borella are kicking off the new management of the group by starting a string of hackthons on technology we think is cool! First off is an OpenShift Hackathon at the new Red Hat office in Ørestad. We are limiting the number of people attending to around 40 people, as we rather have quality instead of quantity!
# What?
A hackthon on OpenShift Container Platform. The point of it is learn-by-doing, to get the chance to collaborate with other people on topics of interest and grow your network. We'll setup an OpenShift cluster and then we'll all get hacking. Me and Jacob Borella will be there to provide some support, but we won't be able to hold everyones hand ;) With that said, this is both for beginners who wants hands on experience and for people who want to push the limit and try new things.
# How?
Come to the Red Hat office, report at the reception and you'll be given directions to the room where we'll hang out. We'll provide food, drinks and OpenShift.
# Prereqs?
There aren't any really, but if you want suggestions which will ease collaboration with others:
- Think about what you want to do. Just play around to learn the basics? Try to put your favorite app on OpenShift? Replicate and solve an issue you saw at work? Create an automated blue/green or canary deployment? Try to create a fully containerized devevelopment environment including IDE, git and CI?
- Install the OpenShift CLI: https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/3.6/cli_reference/get_started_cli.html
- Register an account on github.com (http://github.com/), a lot of collaboration is going on there.
- Advanced: Register an account on developers.redhat.com (http://developers.redhat.com/) and setup OpenShift on your laptop: https://developers.redhat.com/products/openshift/download/
