About
Pangea helps you create secure apps without slowing down innovation. With Pangea's comprehensive framework of essential API-based security services, you can effectively and efficiently protect your users, meet security and compliance standards, and block threats.
Pangea is turning the complex and fragmented world of security into a simple set of pay-as-you-go APIs for developers. By eliminating the burden of building, scaling and managing complex security code, you can focus on your app logic while reducing its attack surface.
Participate and win big
The Pangea Securathon is a great opportunity to build your security skills quickly, create a secure app leveraging Pangea's developer platform of APIs and provide us with feedback to improve our products for users! 🙌 Use one or more of Pangea's API-based security services to quickly code security functions into your new or existing cloud-based application.

https://hashnode.com/@akhilgautamWhen building my pet projects, I used to get bored and leave them in between. Hackathons on Hashnode create a competitive environment that hits me every moment to keep building it and take it to the finish line.
We also get constructive reviews on the hackathons' blogs on Hashnode that motivates us to make the product better. Other than that I bought a Fujifilm XT-3 camera from the prize money of my last win.
