Kicking off Postman’s API-First Student Event for Hacktoberfest
Blog post from Postman
Throughout October, Postman is participating in Hacktoberfest, an annual event organized by DigitalOcean to promote open-source software, by hosting an API-first student event. This initiative enables students to engage in API-first development by either building a frontend using Postman's Halloween Costume Contest API mock server or creating a live API server using their schema. Participants can enter a raffle for a $250 Amazon gift card by completing their projects by October 31, 2021, and may also qualify for Hacktoberfest's limited-edition T-shirt by having four pull requests approved. Postman supports API-first development, which involves designing APIs as the primary building blocks of software, allowing teams to work concurrently with a schema as a blueprint. The event encourages collaboration through community channels like Discord, where Postman hosts office hours and provides support. Students can work individually or in teams, and are encouraged to be creative in their projects, potentially winning prizes and gaining experience in open-source contributions.
