Building at Full Speed!

It's time to ensure your ideas are taking concrete form. Remember, judges are looking for a working software application that prominently features the use of Kiro.

Focus for this week:

  • Core Development: Dedicate serious time to coding your application using Kiro.

  • Leverage Kiro Effectively: Make sure you're integrating Kiro in ways that showcase its power for code generation, automation, and spec implementation. This is a key judging criterion!

  • Think Ahead to Your Demo Video: The video portion of the Submission should describe for the judging panel how Kiro was used to create the project. Examples can include:

    • For building and vibe coding from scratch: How did you structure your conversations with Kiro to build your project? What was the most impressive code generation Kiro helped you with?

    • For agent hooks: What specific workflows did you automate with Kiro hooks? How did these hooks improve your development process?

    • For spec-to-code: How did you structure your spec for Kiro to implement? How did the spec-driven approach improve your development process?

Keep up the fantastic work! The submission deadline is September 15th at 12:00 PM PDT.
