Contests
In order to encourage developers and give them an opportunity to learn more about Kivy, we
organized two contests in 2012 and 2014.
With a total of 200+ participants between the two contests, we were able to use their
feedback to improve the quality of the documentation and codebase.
Is a new contest coming soon? Follow us on Twitter to keep in touch!
