Build here, go anywhere.

CodeShift is a hackathon that brings together developers from all over the world to demonstrate their skills and creativity using Red Hat's cloud-native application development platform.

The hackathon will explore cloud-native development with the Red Hat OpenShift application platform, including Java runtimes (Quarkus, Spring Boot), event-driven architectures with Apache Kafka, integration with Apache Camel, single sign-on, APIs, microservices, and more. Developers will also have the chance to build, deploy, and scale intelligent applications using Red Hat OpenShift Data Science and Intel's AI/ML technologies.
