TADHack-mini Orlando

We’re back for TADHack-mini Orlando #4, the weekend before Enterprise Connect Virtual 2020 . Here you can see what we got up to at TADHack-mini Orlando 2019, as well as 2018, and 2017.

Here are the welcome videos from Alan and the Sponsors of TADHack-mini Orlando 2020.

It’s a hackathon about using the Apidaze, Asterisk, Intelepeer, and Simwood resources to solve problems that matter to you in your work, home and community life, see bottom of this webpage for more info on their resources.

Who?
Anyone who’s interested, web dev skills will help.

Why?
To showcase the power of sponsors’ resources, network with great people, and possibly win some of the $4k in prizes, plus promote your ideas and skills to the online Enterprise Connect audience.

But what about COVID-19? 
We’ve always accepted remote entries. And as Valencia will be closed, TADHack-mini Orlando is online only for 2020. The remote entry procedure is in this weblog.

Communications is now democratized so anyone can program with it. You can add programmable voice, calling, text messages (SMS and IM), audio and video messages, video calling, faxing (yep, fax still exists), secure communications and authentication, decentralized communications, mobile payments, and much much more through easy to use APIs/SDKs, and even easier to use GUIs. Programmable Telecoms is everything to do with communications between people and things that can be controlled by software (on your phone/laptop, in the cloud, or in your business).

For 2020 we’re adding a theme, a focus, for the hackathon on intelligent agents / assistants (also known as bots) using conversational interfaces. We have the support of renowned expert Dan Miller, Opus Research. Who will be joining us for the judging on Sunday, and supporting us in the run-up to the event.

A TADHack is an event in which people (e.g. students, graphic designers, project managers, product managers, IT Managers, Enterprise Connect virtual attendees, computer programmers, interested individuals, and subject-matter-experts) collaborate on a software project focused on programmable telecoms. You do not need to be a coder to take part.

TADHack is all about learning, sharing, coding (you can even avoid this with some of the GUIs), creating, and most importantly having fun with a diverse group of people. Let’s show the world hacking will continue, and will help us all cope with this new normal. Thank you
