Developer Camp: The World's Best Hackathon
10 years of pioneering.
10 years of making.
10 years of friendship, support, and community.
10 years of success and profit.
It is time to celebrate our inclusive, diverse, and equal-opportunity society with a huge event that honors our past and pivots into the future.
Who: Developers, designers, entrepreneurs, testers, and makers. The elite corps of Developer Camp Counselors (https://devca.mp/counsel-882c44415df) — winners of past events, and distinguished members of our community from the Bay Area stand ready to teach and help.

Why: There is a huge opportunity to bring diversity to the technology industry. Women and girls, men and boys, we all deserve more opportunities to start coding using simple, powerful tools. Watch our Women of iOSDevCamp video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9jIfvG8hUY).

Learn more about our upcoming event (https://devca.mp/developer-camp-10th-anniversary-november-10-12-2017-at-paypal-town-hall-5e0f1b660b82).
This event has catalyzed the launch of award winning startups (like Getaround and Foodspotting), the formation of founder dream teams (Square), and the building of a talented and collaborative community of developers.
Out-of-town guests are welcome to join our inclusive event. Though projects will include both solo and team efforts, we encourage attendees to build teams of diverse expertise — business ideas, marketing, design, testing, coding, and back-end development. All attendees should be prepared to participate in the development of a project during the event. Scholarships are available to encourage diversity, and mentors are available.
“It’s one of the most pure and original hackathons. People come from all around and really just hack on something, meet new people, cherish the relationships that they create here—and go out to create huge companies. The developers we’ve met at Developer Camp are among the best in the world. Some of them have gone on to join our team. We’re excited to be supporting the event again this year... Developer Camp is the best.”
