TinyMCE is thrilled to continue our long-standing partnership with Major League Hacking (MLH) by participating in Global Hack Week for Open Source, happening from October 4 - 10, 2024! This exciting event brings together developers, hackers, and tech enthusiasts from around the world for a full week of learning, building, and collaborating. As a trusted name in rich text editing, TinyMCE is proud to be part of this innovative community.
Last year, we saw over 80 incredible projects built using TinyMCE during MLH’s Hackathon League, providing a wealth of inspiration for participants this year. As we gear up for this year’s Global Hack Week, we’re excited to bring even more engaging challenges, hands-on workshops, and opportunities to showcase your creativity using TinyMCE. Whether you’re a seasoned developer or just getting started, there’s something for everyone.
Here’s what we have in store for you during the event:
TinyMCE challenges: Test your skills!
