SUMMARY:SURF Research Cloud Hackathon
DESCRIPTION:This SURF Research Cloud hackathon is aimed at developers and research support staff who are developing Research Cloud components or are interested in doing so in the future.\n\n\nIn the morning\, we will get to know each other and discuss development practices and use cases. In the afternoon\, we will get our hands dirty in a small hackathon and develop catalog items together in teams. If you are new to catalog item development\, parallel to the hackathon\, there will be a workshop on getting started with catalog item development.\n\n\n\nIf you are new to catalog item development\, parallel to the hackathon\, there will be a workshop on getting started with catalog item development.\n\nThe language of instruction is English.\n\nRegister
