Community Update: February 2019 Programming Contest Winners (Make Your Colors Count)! 🎨
Thank you to everyone who participated in February's Programming Contest! For this month's contest, the theme was about "making your colors count" -- entries had to use as few colors as possible in their projects. This was a true test of creativity, as entrants had to make very interesting and visually appealing projects while sticking to some very stringent guidelines! 🎨
Below are the winning entries, along with judging rationale from the Challenge Council. Congratulations to everyone for their hard work, creativity, and enthusiasm!
Remember: You never lose. Either you win or you learn :)
