We’re on day 3. A lot has been done, and a lot remains. But you can’t take our good mood away 😄
We’re running into walls, building walls, and tearing walls down. The smiles stay on the whole time 😀
This has been incredibly fun so far, and we’re excited for what’s ahead. But now it’s time to get back to work!
Thanks for all the support, blog ❤️ xoxo

Before the sun come up
Early bird cathes the worm!
Competition
We have a competition going
BUT DOH!
The comitee has run a script that mines the whole night. Thank you for giving us so much data 😀
Lets see what will happen.
Teamspirit
We have kept our team spirit througout the Hackaton! And will continue to spread good vibes with our team and table setup!
Two of us won the 5-kamp! So we put in some good effort!
Between dashboards, badge-sniping and a suspiciously productive Village Golem Pyotr, the CCCP crew keeps on the vibe high, laughing, helping, and somehow still finding time to celebrate the small wins (and the big ones).
No lone-wolf coding in this republic. We move as a unit. We review together. We fix together. We meme together. This extremely high team spirit and good vibes is what makes us love what we do. #Remarkableteamspirit
Also: two more badges on the board today!
Glossy Pixels goes to the portal UI. We’ve been polishing the Power Pages experience so far, so it feels clean, fast, and actually pleasant to use! Sindre is all about that look and feel when it comes to a good user experience and that is why we have sat him on the case.
“I mean, what can I say – just look at it” – Sindre
Power User Love is for the way we’re building it: low-code where it makes sense (Power Pages, Dataverse, built-in components), and pro code where it counts (VS Code, custom templates/CSS/layout tweaks). Best of both worlds, and it’s starting to look like a real product.
“It is not as responsive at I would like yet, but I am coming for you Chameleon badge!” – Sindre
A HOT TIP FROM SINDRE TO ALL OF YOU PRO-CODERS!
If you want to pro-code your power pages solution, use PAC CLI in command lines to download your solution locally. From there you can keep on coding in your own editor and gain access to ALL extensions and the developer tools you love to use! #Sharingiscaring
The 8-bit Bastards are setting out to build something genuinely useful with AI and the Power Platform.
To feel at home, we did what any sensible Minecraft-inspired team would do: set up our team photo, grabbed our swords, and got ready to build.
This isn’t about a single feature or a polished demo. It’s about experimenting, learning fast, and seeing what happens when pro-code, low-code, and Copilot collide—sometimes gracefully, sometimes explosively
Slytherins stick together. In light or dark times the spirit within SlytherIN is high. And as the project comes together it only get’s higher. The sky is the limit.
Around the table or casting dark curses on our competitors we do it all with a smile.
With delicious pizza fueling our spirits, we’re proudly claiming three badges! In this blog post, we’ll dive in with the same courage and determination Harry displayed in the Triwizard Tournament.
💣 Feature bombing
From the very beginning, our goal has been to unite multiple platforms into one seamless, feature-packed experience with a Weasleys’ twist. On our homepage alone, users can:
These features don’t just exist – they’re alive and interactive, ensuring the experience is magical, dynamic, and fun. We’ve officially mastered the art of feature bombing (without overwhelming) and are ready to claim this badge!
🦎 Chameleon
Our app is built with adaptability at its core, ensuring a magical experience no matter what device you’re using. Whether it’s the compact elegance of an iPhone 13 or the expansive screen of an iPad, our interface scales perfectly without compromising usability or design.
Below, you can watch a short video showcasing the app’s responsiveness in action. Magical, right?
And last but certainly not least, the…
🥳 Remarkable team spirit
Of course, we have to share with the world how incredible this weekend has been!
Go check it out, and don’t forget to give Iselin a like! —> https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:ugcPost:7288637216099127297/
We have also been posting on Snapchat, Instagram and the Bouvet internal Slack channel! #sharingiscaring 😉
Now, we’re off for a swim! 🏊♀️✨
Nothing better than to start day developing by the pool
Even before the sun was up, we were wide awake—coffee mugs in hand and Harry Potter costumes at the ready! Our team is determined to grab that Morning Glory badge for our early start, and we’re keeping the energy high to earn the Remarkable Teamspirit badge. We’ll snap plenty of photos (wands and laptops included) and share the excitement across our social channels. Here’s to a day of coding magic and unbreakable camaraderie!
As a developer, there are plenty of challenges that push our coding and problem-solving abilities to new heights. But what happens when you throw a bit of creativity and a touch of magic into the mix? Well, that’s exactly what is happening at the Arctic Cloud Developer Challenge. Not only that we are deep diving into cloud technologies and tackling some truly innovative problems, but we also having a blast embracing our inner nerds with Harry Potter-themed costumes and decorations. 🪄✨
But the true magic of the challenge lay in how our team is working together! Each member of our team is bringing something unique to the table, whether it was deep technical knowledge, fresh ideas, or a skill for problem-solving. We are leaning on each other’s strengths, just like a well-balanced Hogwarts house working together to conquer a tough assignment.
We got our Hogwarts Express tickets, so Harry and Hermione went through the 9 and 3/4 platform! Don’t believe it? Here’s the proof!
