While working at Humana as a summer intern this past summer, I had the opportunity to help organize their first-ever intern hackathon. I worked with a committee to organize sponsors, speakers, rules, meals, and everything else that came with setting up a 36-hour hackathon. I also volunteered to build a website to advertise the hackathon and inform attendees of the rules and schedule of the event. We had a small timeframe, and I still had my normal intern project to keep up with, but I found the spare time necessary to build and refine a simple Single Page Application (SPA), with a few cool JQuery and SASS effects to boot. By the end of the internship, I’d received as much praise for the website as I had for anything else I did that summer. By the time this summer rolled around, I was proud to be asked to help the upcoming intern class refine it further for the second annual HackHI!
Code
I’m not gonna lie, pretty much all of the code was really below average. I’ll post some of the Javascript on here since it’s not as pumpkin-spice basic as everything else here. If you really want to see it, I guess you could check out the repo.
