Grafana Labs hackathon showcase: Doomfana, real-time drone tracking, and a panel plugin for geospatially aware data
Over the past year, Grafana Labs has held regular company-wide hackathons: a week for Grafanistas to unlock their creativity and think outside the box (but often within a panel). During the hackathons, Grafanistas from all over the org joined forces to invent, build, and solve challenging technical problems related to our products, community, and business. In this session, three teams will share demos of their fantastic hackathon projects:
- Can Grafana run Doom? You bet!
- Real-time drone tracking and management, leveraging Grafana Live
- Panel plugin for enriched, geospatially aware data
