This Wednesday, December 14, we will have the first (annual? monthly? probably somewhere in between…) Swarm swarm, i.e. collaborative virtual hackathon. Details can be found here on the Swarm wiki.
- Time: 8am-5pm CST / 9am-6pm EST / 2pm-11pm UTC (feel free to drop in and out any time)
- Place: The Swarm Hive on gather.town
- Who: you! Anyone interested in hacking on Swarm is welcome, from experienced to first-time contributors. If you’ve been thinking of getting involved but haven’t yet, this could be a perfect opportunity.
As a reminder, Swarm is a 2D, open-world programming and resource gathering game, implemented in Haskell, with a strongly-typed, functional programming language and a unique upgrade system. Unlocking language features is tied to collecting resources, making it an interesting challenge to bootstrap your way into the use of the full language.
