The Chicago API Hackday was a successful event where 20 teams presented their projects within six hours, with many incorporating Twilio into their hacks. The winning teams, Twhoacoder and Interpretio, received Apple gift cards for their innovative projects that showcased the capabilities of Twilio's services. Despite the weather, attendees left with a great experience, learning something new about Chicago's tech scene and gaining access to valuable resources from Twilio, including documentation, ebooks, industry reports, webinars, best practices, code samples, and inspiration.
