@ContestBot is now ready to accept submissions for the JavaScript Contest, Round 1.

New deadline: 23:59 on February 22nd (Dubai time)

We are extending the deadline to give all contestants enough time to properly prepare their submissions. Please prepare your submission at least 2–3 hours before the deadline and avoid uploading until the last moment, as late submissions will not be accepted.

Build the application, then prepare:
- A ZIP-archive with the following structure:
 
-> dist - folder with the build.
-> src - folder with the app's source code.
-> contest.md – a text file that briefly describes the approach used for each task.

- A link to the commit on a public GitHub repository, forked from the Telegram Web A repository.

Your repository may stay private until the deadline.

We are attaching a breakdown of the Final Results for each submission.

1. Final Results:

Initially, for preliminary testing published on contest.com, we ran each test in a separate process. This allowed us to fully evaluate even solutions that crashed or hung on specific tests. However, this method disrupted many participants' performance optimizations and introduced substantial noise into the results.

Therefore, for the final evaluation, we executed all tests in a single process using a grader closely resembling the provided contest-grader.cpp. Consequently, solutions that crashed or hung on any test received a final score of 0.

2. Post-Contest Corrections:

After announcing preliminary results, several participants submitted bug fixes via comments on contest.com. Although we typically do not accept post-contest corrections, one corrected solution turned out to be significantly faster than any solution submitted during the contest. As an exception, we decided to evaluate all corrected submissions and include them in the final standings. To maintain fairness, these late submissions incurred a 20% penalty on the prize amounts awarded.
πŸ† Telegram Contest for JavaScript Developers, Round 1: Update

The judges have completed the evaluation of all submissions.

The Main Task – reworking the text editor – proved to be quite challenging for the majority of contestants.

We’ve decided to expand the scope of this contest. Final scoring is currently underway, and we will announce the results on April 8, 2025, along with the details for Round 2.

πŸ† Telegram Contest for JavaScript Developers, Round 1: Results

After many hours of testing and deliberation, we are now ready to announce the results!

Reworking a text editor – essentially a core component of a messaging app – posed numerous challenges due to the wide range of formatting options and other entities, such as custom emoji.

None of the contestants were able to secure first place, yet we have increased the prize fund for Round 1 by more than 13% to fairly recognize the efforts of the participants.

The judges unanimously agreed to move forward with a second round – which begins immediately.

This time, only the winners of Round 1 will be eligible to participate. More details – in the post below.

And now – meet the winners!
