We received 90+ blog posts and videos as part of the contest - thank you for the amazing response! The submissions were really good - every story was unique and excellent in their own way. Hence, it was challenging for the review team to rate and select the winners from excellent submissions!!

The review team considered many factors including technical depth, real-time use case/relevance of project, storytelling/documentation clarity, and code samples on GitHub.
