Whether they attended in America, the Netherlands, or Australia, many newcomers walked away from Knowledge '22 impressed by the CreatorCon "belle of the ball:" App Engine Studio (AES). This new excitement was in large part due to all of YOU, the ServiceNow developer community, and how you opened up about all of the awesome things you have been building and doing faster than ever. (And AES isn't even a year old yet!) 🎂 Check out the video below featuring some of your exciting stories. ⬇️
But these interviews represent only the tip of the iceberg of what's being created on the ServiceNow platform. And that brings us to the topic at hand: the #BuildWithAES Challenge! We're opening up this #BuildWithAES Challenge to better understand how our developer community is using AES, what use cases its being used for, and which pieces of it are most valuable. Simply try AES yourself if you haven't already, share your AES knowledge, and show how you built your app with AES. You’ll inspire your peers to start developing apps fast in one environment using App Engine Studio.
Don't you worry - here at ServiceNow we're all about a healthy amount of quid pro quo for a job well-done 🤝 We've never seen corporate swag fly off the shelves as fast as our '22 CreatorCon shirts, so we thought that reviving this design one more time (sans the CreatorCon logo) would be a perfect prize for this contest.

All you need to do is complete the following before September 4th at 11:00 p.m. PST (Pacific Time), and you’ll get this year’s ServiceNow Developer t-shirt!
