Hacky Birthday Bash

Calling all the APAC Hackers! It's our birthday week and we are excited to celebrate it with the amazing hacker community! Let's hack on projects that define your hacker journey. Build creative hacks that empower you to do more and celebrate our birthday this weekend with us. While we'd love to have you build something on the theme, our themes are only here for inspiration. As always, build whatever you'd like! If you're from the NA/EU region, we'd love for you to join another one of our amazing hackathons which are more time-friendly for your region: [Backyard Hacks 3](https://organize.mlh.io/participants/events/8202-backyard-hacks-3) Happy hacking!

Challenges

Most Creative Use of GitHub

GitHub is one of the best ways to collaborate, push code, get feedback, and show the world what you’ve built during a hackathon. To take it a step further, GitHub is now offering you access to industry tools, events & learning resources through something called GitHub Global Campus. Win this weekend’s Most Creative Use of GitHub prize category, first by signing up for GitHub Global Campus and second by using a GitHub repository to host your hackathon project’s code! Make sure your use of GitHub stands out with a detailed ReadMe page, meaningful pull requests and collaboration history, and even a GitHub pages deployment!<br><br>

Most Creative Use of Twilio

Twilio allows you to incorporate mobile messaging, phone calls and a ton of other awesome communication features right into your hackathon project using a web service API. Are you building an e-commerce website and want to send text notifications or email confirmations once an order is completed? Or maybe you'd like to verify users based on their mobile numbers? Twilio makes all this possible and more. Build a hack that simplifies your life using any Twilio API for a chance to win some awesome prizes! Get started with $50 in free credit!<br>
