**Calling all developers! We’re happy to announce the kick off of the [Voucherify](https://voucherify.io/?utm_campaign=challenge&utm_medium=Post&utm_source=devto) API  Developer Challenge series. Each month we’ll be announcing a developer challenge and the most original applications will be awarded a Chromebook, some cool Voucherify swag, and vouchers from our partners.**

Our first [hackathon](https://dev.to/msedzielewski/takeaways-from-our-first-hackathon-361) turned out to be an amazing event. It was both fun and a learning opportunity. We met some great developers, found hidden bugs in our platform and discovered new ways of improving our API. This made us think about how we can roll out this kind of event on a larger scale. As we’re only a handful of devs, we decided to take it online. And here we are! So, if you:
* want to pick up a helluva lot of new dev skills
* can deliver fast under crazy conditions devised by our dev team
* can’t wait to configure every little option of your brand-new **Chromebook**
you should join the contest right now!

## How to enter
Every first day of the month we’ll be releasing a new challenge in a dedicated [repo](https://github.com/voucherifyio/developer-challenge). Submit your application in the form provided by the deadline given. Bonus points for explaining your solution on your blog or in the *readme.md* on Github.

If you have any questions, please feel free to create an issue on GH.

## How to learn Voucherify API
Visiting our developer [documentation](https://docs.voucherify.io/) and [support](http://support.voucherify.io/) pages will be helpful in increasing your understanding of the ins and outs of our API and dashboard. Once you go through the quick start guide, you can take a look at the [examples](https://docs.voucherify.io/docs/examples) and the [SDK](http://docs.voucherify.io/docs/sdks) sections in the docs.
