IBM and Pragyan presents IBM Coding challenge : an application development contest coupled with series of seminars and tutorials on app development by IBM.
 

Problem statement :

Think of an idea and build an app about it. The idea could be absolutely anything ranging from creating an app to chat with friends to an app that solves some humongous issue. Some example domains are: Education, entertainment, transport, financial markets, networking, health or anything of the participants choice.

The apps can be developed in Java, Node.js, Python, Ruby etc. The only condition is that these apps must be developed & deployed on IBM's Platform as a service called IBM Bluemix.
