*🏆 *Telegram Сontest for JS Developers, Round 1: Results

After many hours of testing and watching hundreds of Live Streams, we are now ready to announce the results. From a total of 19 submissions, 13 contestantsqualified for prizes – basically every developer who implemented at least one part of the overall task.

Despite a challenging Contest Task and a tight deadline, we were happy to see many solid apps. Despite nobody achieving perfect Live Streams (each implementation we tested requires a significant amount of further polishing), we would like to give a special thanks to🥇Fit Whale, who was able to find a great minimalist solution for Task II that will be merged with Web K soon.🥈Dreamy Crow presented a similar approach that is slightly less optimal, but still notable.

Telegram JavaScript Contest: Submissions

Build the application, then prepare:
- A ZIP-archive with the following structure:

\-> public \- folder with the build. \-> src \- folder with the app's source code. \-> readme.txt – a text file that briefly describes the approach used for each task, listing all external dependencies and libraries you've added. If the bonus task has been completed, a detailed explanation must be included for it.

- A link to the commit on a public GitHub repository, forked from the Telegram Web K repository. Your repository may stay private until the deadline.

Note: To build the application you have to make some changes in vite module: replace the file node_modules/vite/dist/node/chunks/dep\-R0I0XnyH.js with the one attached below.

Note 2: @ContestBot will begin accepting submissions within the next 12 hours. To submit, you'll need to start the bot, select “JS Contest R1”, answer the bot’s questions, and then send your archive along with the commit link.

Good luck!

Prize fund: $30,000
Deadline: 23:59 on January 21st (Dubai time)
Who can participate: Everyone
Results: February 4th, 2024

Telegram is hosting a contest for JavaScript developers to implement Live Streaming into Telegram Web and enhance video playback capabilities in specific browsers.

The Task:
1. Implement Live Streaming into Telegram Web K based on the provided mockups.
2. Introduce a workaround for a Chromium bug that prevents certain videos from being played.

For an in-depth task description, further details and a bonus task, please refer to this document 👈

Evaluation Criteria and Requirements:
General
– No third-party UI frameworks are allowed.
– The submission must be consistent with the existing Web K codebase.
– Your implementation must work flawlessly on desktop Chrome (across Linux, macOS, Windows) and Safari on macOS. Proper support for other browsers and mobile environments (Android, iOS) will be considered a bonus.

❗️Your app must precisely follow the provided design mockups. Entries that fail to do so will be severely penalized.

Live Streaming
– The most preferable outcome can be achieved by re-using parts of dash.js. However, you may opt for your own approach, provided that the final result is not inferior to the implementation present in Telegram's native apps.
Submissions:Contestants will be able to submit their entries to @ContestBot at a later date. We will further clarify the submission instructions closer to the deadline.

P.S. Winners may be offered a chance to explore further opportunities with Telegram.
