<!! 2021: Neo's Odyssey is closed. Keep an eye on our Community Forum for future editions !!>

Hello everyone!

OSDC is over and what an amazing two days we had! Hundreds of talks given by our Community members, spanning a huge variety of topics, and several chances to just geek out!

However, with so many tracks and content it can be hard to catch up on everything... What if we had a way of consolidating and materializing all the new information we shared?

This is exactly where Neo enters the scene: Welcome to 2021: Neo’s Odyssey!

What is it?

A month-long coding journey that consists of daily quests that Neo faces while exploring space. The quests will be shared daily in the OutSystems Forum.

OK, cool, but what’s in it for me?

• You get to build a fun app that you can actually use with your friends!

• You’ll explore the OutSystems platform as a whole: front-end, BPT, security, integrations, and much, much more!

• You’ll try challenges that wouldn’t be a usual part of your day-to-day work (rotating cubes anyone?)

• You’ll have the perfect reason to get some time to practice and upgrade your OutSystems Developer magic skills.

I’m game, how can I participate?

• You’ll need a personal and free environment, so if you don’t have one, get one here.

• You can then start whenever you want. The goal is to do a bit of code every day but what works for you, works for Neo!

• You’ll start by submitting your app on the Forge and then update it as you complete the daily quests.

• And, don’t forget: Always abide by the OutSystems Community Code of Conduct.

What if I need help?

Make sure to also check the apps that are being shared by other participants here.

The OutSystems Forum is always your best choice, the place where you can discuss the daily challenge in the specific post that we’ll create.

In case you’re stuck and need someone to rubber duck, you’ll have our OutSystems MVPs and Champions ready to help out in the Discord server!

Check the beautiful Neo’s Odyssey page for more details and share it with your network!

With all that said... See you December 1st for our first challenge!
