Swarm virtual hackathon

This Wednesday, December 14, we will have the first (annual? monthly? probably somewhere in between…) Swarm swarm, i.e. collaborative virtual hackathon. Details can be found here on the Swarm wiki.

• Time: 8am-5pm CST / 9am-6pm EST / 2pm-11pm UTC (feel free to drop in and out any time)
• Place: The Swarm Hive on gather.town
• Who: you! Anyone interested in hacking on Swarm is welcome, from experienced to first-time contributors. If you’ve been thinking of getting involved but haven’t yet, this could be a perfect opportunity.

As a reminder, Swarm is a 2D, open-world programming and resource gathering game, implemented in Haskell, with a strongly-typed, functional programming language and a unique upgrade system. Unlocking language features is tied to collecting resources, making it an interesting challenge to bootstrap your way into the use of the full language.
