What is CODE IN THE DARK?

Code in the Dark is a programming "competition" in the intersection of front-end knowledge, smoke machines and intense heart-beating music. Contestants try to recreate an image with only HTML and CSS without previewing it, before the public decides who wins.

15 min
HTML/CSS
No previews
One champion

    If you don't want to participate you are more than welcome to just hang out, cheer and vote for your favorite! It's just as much fun to watch as it is to compete!

    All you need to know

    There will be food and beverages served during the evening.
