Are you a developer? Are you a fan of open science? You could win USD $5,000 for developing an app or integration that works with Figshare!

We’re running an app development competition throughout March and April to develop new apps and integrations for our new app store, available at https://knowledge.figshare.com/apps. Follow these steps to participate:

Write and store your code on GitHub
Create a record of your code, and get a DOI for it, on Figshare by syncing your GitHub account to your Figshare account
Add the keyword ‘FigDev’ to the Figshare item and we’ll compile them all into a Figshare Collection

4. We’ll let the public vote on their favourite app or integration and announce the winner shortly after!

All apps developed during the competition will be added to the app store. Figshare’s API is available at https://docs.figshare.com. If you have any questions, please contact megan@figshare.com.

Terms and conditions for the competition are available at https://knowledge.figshare.com/articles/item/figdev-terms-and-conditions.
