🤖 Telegram Mini App Contest

Deadline: 23:59 on October 9th (Dubai time)
Who can participate: Everyone
Results: October 31st, 2023

Telegram is launching a contest for developers of Mini Apps like this one. One of the goals of this competition is to create a variety of examples and reusable tools for future Mini App developers.

The Task:

The task is to build any useful Mini App for Telegram and publish its client and server code on Github.

Your submission must include:
• A GitHub repository containing the source code of your example Mini App, built from scratch. You can use any programming language for the server-side code. The source code of your app must be easy to understand and reusable for any developer starting to build Mini Apps for Telegram. For more, see the “Mini App requirements” section below.
Comprehensive and organized documentation in English, including a setup guide. Ensure the guide addresses every element of your solution, and the documentation details all potential errors and exceptions. It should be written in a user-friendly way that is approachable even for inexperienced developers. Translations in other languages are welcome too.

---

Mini App requirements:
• Design a simple yet functional app. For reference, see @DurgerKingBot or @wallet.
• Your solution should include at least one fully functional Mini App example. Example apps are allowed to showcase fictional services or generate placeholder data, such as creating a mock store.
• It is strictly prohibited to implement a browser view of actual webpages, the Mini App must be a separate entity built from scratch solely for its purpose. For example a "Weather App" submission that only provides a browser view for an existing weather website is not allowed. That said, actual webpages are allowed for authorization flows where a user is required to sign up or log in to use the service.
• Recommended Mini App categories include games, dating, community management, venue booking, e-commerce, сontent editing, etc.
• Each additional Mini App example can qualify for extra rewards, but only if it represents a different app category.

Evaluation Criteria:
We will evaluate each submission's code and documentation quality from the developer perspective, as well as its example Mini Apps from the user perspective. The app should be useful for developers, users, or both.

@ContestBot will begin accepting submissions at a later date. We will further clarify the submission instructions closer to the deadline.
