Quick-start guide

Thanks for joining the Appian World Hackathon! You're officially registered now, and we’ll be sending you regular updates throughout the competition.

Here’s how to prepare yourself to build a business app on the Appian low-code platform. Remember: Submissions are due March 27, 2018, at 5pm ET.

  1. Request access to the Appian platform if you don’t have an account here using the Instant Access Token: AW18HACKATHON (Need admin access on your account? Request it on the resources tab.)
  2. Review the documentation. Familiarize yourself with the Appian platform and browse the documentation. This list of tutorials might be helpful, too.
  3. Optional: Form a team. Thinking about buddying up? Visit the participants page to find and meet teammates. You can see who else is looking for a teammate, check out what’s in their portfolio, and send them a message to connect. Consider signing up for the competition Slack channel, too, where you can also meet and chat with other hackers.
  4. Build or update your functioning application using the Appian low-code platform.
  5. Create submission materials. Shoot your demo video and share access to your app for judging and testing - here’s how.
  6. Submit your application on appian.devpost.com/ before the deadline!

 

We’re looking forward to seeing your Appian-powered business app. Good luck!
