In general I feel I am good at working in a team and technically I have more experience in backend development. Hackathons are a great event for showing not just technical skills but also the idealogy part with added cupcakes likes working in a team, talking to experienced people over there and with a healthy spirit of winning the competition. Because of these things I am always excited for participating in a hackathon. I have participated in a number of local hackathons. In one of the hackathon named as 'Mumbai Hackathon', my friends and I were building a source based news web application + chatbot where in the user has the control over the feed from any given source in any given language. The tough part was implementing this for local languages like Hindi and we were able to do it and we won the Hackathon. Here is the link for the project : https://github.com/team-anything/Briefly. The things that I learned is the desire to make a product in less time along with having patience and good environment in the team. I want to participate in big Hackathons in India and I am very keen for attending such hackathons. Currently I am exploring blockchain and I am loving this technology. Big Hackathons will be a great learning experience for me and one of the best things that could happen to me in my engineering years!
