This document outlines the guidelines for community collaborations with theDevArmy and theHackCalendar. The aim is to ensure mutual benefits and a smooth partnership process.
theDevArmy is a community of 4000+ hackers dedicated to strengthening the Indian Hackathon Ecosystem. We started an initative called theHackCalendar where we try to list all the Indian Hackathons at one place, which makes it easier for the hackers to find and participate in the hackathons easily. We also send monthly newsletter with the latest hackathons to keep our community updated.
- Free Participation: The hackathon must be free of cost for all participants.
- Duration: The hackathon should be a minimum of 24 hours long.
- Inclusivity: The hackathon must accept participants from all backgrounds.
- Code of Conduct: A clear and written code of conduct must be provided.
Upon approval, theDevArmy will provide the following:
- Hackathon Listing: Inclusion of the hackathon on theHackCalendar
- WhatsApp Promotion: Promotion within theDevArmy WhatsApp Community(4,000+ members).
- Discord Promotion: Promotion within theDevArmy Discord Community (1,200+ members).
- Newsletter Feature: Listing in the monthly newsletter (800+ subscribers), provided that registrations are open during the newsletter’s release schedule.
- Social Media Promotion: Social Media Promotion across Instagram, LinkedIn and Twitter from theDevArmy's handle in the monthly hackathon post, provided that registrations are open during the release schedule.
In return, the hackathon organizers are expected to:
- Promotion of theHackCalendar: Share information about theHackCalendar with all applicants through their preferred platform (e.g., WhatsApp, Discord, Email). TheDevArmy will provide the necessary graphics and content for this purpose.
- Additional Deliverables: Fulfill any other commitments typically provided to other community partners.
