About the challenge

Docker and Docker Hub are the starting point for practitioners to start their AI/ML journey and distribute their applications or models. We’re looking for hacks that use Docker products to help both beginners and advanced users get inspired, get started, and be productive within this exciting new frontier.

 

Get started

1. Register for the hackathon to stay informed

2. Sign up for a Docker account

3. Go to the Idea Generator to start thinking about what to build

4. Join the #docker-ai-ml-hackathon channel in the Docker Community Slack 

Requirements

What to Build

Create a working software application, non-code proof of concept, or design with a strong concept validation that uses AI/ML in conjunction with Docker technologies.

*We favor submissions that are as close to a real-world implementation as possible, but accept submissions that are not fully functional if they show a strong proof of concept.

Examples:

  • AI/ML projects or models built using Docker technology and distributed through DockerHub

  • AI/ML integrations into Docker products which improves the developer experience

  • Enhancement or extensions of Docker products which makes developer working with AI/ML more productive

 

What to Submit

  • Project built with AI/ML and any Docker technology
  • URL to your app, non-code proof of concept, or design 
  • Text description explaining the features and functionality of your Project currently or in future
  • 3-5 minute demo video
