What is the project?
Our team will build a basic version of...something. Then we will send the template to all the teams, and whoever makes it better the best wins!
It could be anything, and we will release the template version on the first day of competition
Why keep it s secret? Well, we want everyone to start from the same starting point at the same time. If we told you the specific type of project, you could just build your own starting now and get a head start.
How will we be judged?
3 general categories:
1) Optimization: our template with have some issuesand we want to see that you can fix them.
2) New Featrues: any platform can be exapnded , lets see what you come up with!
3) Design and UX: Wix Studio makes design and UX very easy to update, so show what you can do. Luckily you'll only be judged on the desktop version and user journeys, rather than color choice or the button corners.
