VMware CodeHouse 2020

This document will serve as guidance for attendees and mentors of VMware CodeHouse 2020.

The goal of the hackathon will be to create an application that furthers STEM eduction and/or Diversity & Inclusion.

This application will run on Kubernetes together with other needed services (databases etc), can connect to third-party APIs to extract/modify/store data, and should be well documented so it can be shared as an example application after the hackathon.

We will be using kind as the tool to run Kubernetes on the attendees' laptops.
