Django Dash is a chance for Django enthusiasts to flex their coding skills a little and produce a killer application within 48 hours. Of course, they want you to have a little fun in the process.

We here at Joyent loves ‘the Django’, and are happy to support the competition that officially kicks off this Saturday, May 31st. We will be awarding the winning teams with a shiny new Accelerator so they have somewhere snazzy to put that winning application once the contest is over.

Keep a watch over at the contest site, and we can’t wait to see what the teams are able to kick out in such a short amount of time.

Good luck!

I just noticed, Joyent isn’t an official sponsor of Django Dash nor is it the web host serving up http://www.djangodash.com/

Kind of weird, no?

@Sarah, we love developers. RoR was a core focus for a long while, but the last year has seen a push of PHP, Java, Erlang…ok, not so much Erlang – but absolutely other languages and frameworks coming through on the Accelerators.

And we are on the sponsor page – http://www.djangodash.com/sponsors/. They had already launched before I got a chance to put their site on us. No biggie. The contest winners will have the goodness now.
