What we built at our windswept Mykonos hackathon
Blog post from PostHog
PostHog, a fully-remote company with a diverse team spread across ten countries, emphasizes the importance of company culture through their annual offsite events, which blend social activities, strategic sessions, and a hackathon. This year, in Mykonos, the team developed several innovative projects, including "Hog," a new programming language aimed at enhancing their product development speed, and "RealTimeHog 3000," a service for real-time user activity visualization. Other notable projects included "MykoLogs," a logging product integrating backend logs with session recordings, and "The Presidential Briefing," an AI-generated personalized update for team members. The hackathon also produced a simplified legal terms generator, an integrated support ticket system, an internal referral program, a managed reverse proxy for data flow, an AI-driven A/B testing tool, and HERMES, a comprehensive feedback management system. These projects aimed to enhance user experience, streamline internal processes, and prepare for future company growth, showcasing PostHog's commitment to innovation and employee involvement in product development.
