Hackathon Ideas

Use this forum to share and put your weight behind ideas you’d like to see tackled during SLA’s EduHackathon weekend, May 11-13th.

All of the student and course data contained within Slate will be available to developers through Slate’s programming interface. A copy of Slate will be available for developers to build against that is identical to SLA’s but populated with randomized data. Apps that integrate with Google services can also be easily plugged into SLA’s ecosystem.

While some developers might be interested in diving into Slate itself to add capabilities to it, given the format of the hackathon weekend the best ideas won’t require a deep working knowledge of Slate’s internals. Rather than new features for within Slate, think about things that could “plug in” to Slate for accounts and data sharing but do something more-or-less on their own.

Go crazy! Hackathon time is when it’s OK to have ridiculous ideas.

What should we build during the hackathon?

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".
