## How it all began

In 2017, a group of students from Novosibirsk State Technical University teamed up to participate in an online hackathon.
The hackathon was about entertainment and fun. We created an application (web and Android) with an infinity battle of memes. Every few seconds users saw a pair of memes and voted for one of them.

Players who rated the meme with a majority vote received the internal currency – MemeCoin.
We won that hackathon and received investments for development.

After that we have participated in hackathons several years. Local hackathons in Siberia (Tomsk, Kemerovo, Novosibirsk) and grand ones in Moscow – it was our hobby.

Meanwhile, we periodically returned to the original idea, but didn't create real product 😢

In parallel with hackathons we have done some education projects. For example, in union with other students, organized IT community AVTF – few meetups by different streams (web development, mobile development, databases, information security, data science). Just so you know, on the first meetup were more than 150 people!

We often discussed about MemeBattle and told to friend. But we could never answer the question "What is MemeBattle". Usually we respond like:
> MemeBattle – is not a dot on a map. MemeBattle – is people.

Looking back, I can answer:
><b>MemeBattle</b> – small community around few technical projects, where we studied new technologies and approaches. <br /> Also this is the team with which we participated in hackathons and other activities.

In the past, we used to have the chance to effortlessly gather with friends or colleagues at a party or in the office, enjoy ourselves, and engage in board games.

Nowadays, many companies are spread across the globe, making it more difficult to gather around one table.

#### Experience

Here, you can practice solving problems like on real-life projects. For example, [add localization system to Ligretto](https://github.com/MemeBattle/monorepo/issues/177), so that the language barrier doesn't spoil the gaming experience.

Or add new features like [leaderboard in Ligretto](https://github.com/MemeBattle/monorepo/milestone/11).

Also there are smaller tasks that help newcomers take their [first steps](https://github.com/MemeBattle/monorepo/labels/good%20first%20issue).

The experience gained from our projects consistently assists me during interviews and in my work.
And because our repositories are open and projects are publicly accessible, any community member has tangible evidence of their experience.
