July Developer Blog Contest: Teach MongoDB with a Detailed Tutorial
We’re seeing tutorials from the MongoDB community about introducing MongoDB with Ruby… with the OpenShift or CloudFoundry platforms… with Spring… on using MongoDB’s MapReduce or geospatial indexing features. Are you a MongoDB expert who has a tutorial to share? If so, we’d love to hear from you in our July developer blog contest.
Contest Rules
The rules are simple: share your knowledge of MongoDB by writing a tutorial or updating a tutorial that you have already created. Do it all in a detailed blog post, with step-by-step instructions for building an application with MongoDB or using MongoDB with a certain language, tool, platform, or framework. You can also submit a tutorial on using a specific MongoDB feature – Map/Reduce, capped collections, geo, or sharding would all be great topics. Here are some guidelines to get you started:- Include step-by-step instructions. Would someone brand new to MongoDB be able to get up and running after reading your post?
- Include code samples
- Consider including something interactive, for example a video or interactive tutorial like mongly.com or try.mongodb.org
We’ll announce the winner in early August. The winner will receive all the prizes listed below, and everyone who enters will receive a MongoDB coffee mug.
