AWS re:Invent Code Challenge:
Two Days, 10 Challenges, Lots of Prizes
The AWS re:Invent Code Challenge will appeal to developers interested in competing for cool prizes, learning about different AWS services and APIs, and meeting other AWS developers. Hosted in the Developer Lounge, the Code Challenge will run two days and include 10 challenges (see schedule below). Each Code Challenge can be completed in under an hour and includes the chance to win a Kindle Fire HD and other cool prizes (see Prizes below).
