Summary

Twilio is launching a new platform called CodeExchange, which allows developers to easily share their Twilio apps with others in the community. The platform aims to foster inspiration and collaboration among Twilio's community of builders by enabling them to showcase their creations and receive feedback. To celebrate its launch, Twilio is running a virtual hackathon in April, offering prizes and recognition to participants who build innovative Twilio-based apps. The hackathon will have four categories: Engaging Engagements, COVID-19 Communications, Interesting Integrations, and Exciting X-Factors. Developers can submit their apps through a three-step process, which includes reviewing guidelines and submitting an issue with a pre-populated form. The platform is designed to provide a clear path for developers to share their code and learn from others' examples and expertise.
