Join us for the Wix Studio Challenge with Special Guest Judge Ania Kubów: $3,000 in Prizes!

We are so excited to announce our first partnered challenge with Wix.

Running through July 07, the Wix Studio Challenge provides an opportunity to develop with one of the most popular and in-demand website building solutions the internet has to offer. There is one prompt for this challenge, and one way to win the entire $3,000 prize pool. 🙀

Flex your JavaScript skills while leveraging the Wix Studio low-code environment to create a slick user experience. Your submission will be a demonstration of real-world product development you’ll want to add to your portfolio!

Our Prompt

For this challenge, your mandate is to build an innovative eCommerce experience with Wix Studio. Wix offers a powerful visual builder as well as a JavaScript-based development platform that enables you to create dynamic and interactive web experiences. You have full control of your site, from frontend design to backend functionality.

We just have one requirement for this challenge: You should leverage Wix’s set of APIs and libraries to enhance your users’ shopping experience. The more features, the merrier.

Heads up

Incorporating Service Plugins in your app is a powerful way to enable further customization of your shopping experience. However, these will be at the center of a future challenge 😉. So you are advised to build primarily around the other APIs at your disposal for this challenge.

Of course, we hope to see you participate in this and all future Wix Challenges!

Judging and Prizes

For the first time ever, we will have a special guest judge joining us for this challenge! With over 400,000 subscribers on YouTube, Ania Kubów is a prolific software developer, educator, and course creator. Ania has taught tens of thousands of people how to code, from the comforts of their home.

• Use of underlying technology

• $3,000 USD

Are we allowed to use wix templates? or do we have to build everything from scratch

[Anthony L]

Hey @everlygif great question! Everything should be built from scratch for this competition.

Hello everyone, I hope you're all doing well. I recently launched an open-source project called GraphQLPlaceholder, and I'd love your support. Please check it out and give it a star on GitHub github.com/enochval/graphql-placeh.... Your support would mean a lot to me and help immensely in the project's growth.

Thank you.

[Roger Hunt]

So do we post our completed project here?

[Jess Lee]

You'll need to submit your project as a post with the template above, which will ask for a demo link.
