This could be you.

DevFest, a “week long application development experience” sponsored by the Application Development Initiative, kicks off today in Davis Auditorium at 1:00 pm. According to a tipster, there will be a bounty of snacks including Chinese food and WestSide sandwiches—ample fuel for the 24-hour hackathon which begins today as well. DevFest runs all week, and features workshops from companies such as Foursquare and bit.ly, culminating in a “Demofest” next weekend where participants pitch their projects to an audience of startups and VCs. Our tech experts confirm that not only will there be “a shitton” of food, but it’s also a really cool event.
