A lot of us, I can imagine, are pigeon-holed into a career area of defaulted expertise. I have found a significant increase in my professional productivity, inspiration, insight, and satisfaction when I am able to reach into an area I know little about. It is normally difficult at first, but when I come back I have a new perspective into the daily development routine. The benefits of this concept must be explored and exploited, and in this way I submit myself to Hello Program.
Here I will record the blood, sweat, and tears of projects that are developed and delivered in less than 24 hours of non-contiguous effort.
Guiding Principles
- The project must be at least deliverable and preferably released to a platform.
-
There are no restrictions on toolsets or platforms.
-
A project may extend a previous program, but must still be deliverable.
- A maximum 24 hour development cycle, generally defined as 4-6 hours to research and write a proposal, 12-18 hours development, and 2 hours to deliver.
-
Project code and assets should be made available under some usage license.
This is a challenge.
