Codegeist 2026: Build with context. Ship with confidence.

What is Codegeist? Codegeist is Atlassian’s annual hackathon where developers from around the world unleash creativity on Forge, Atlassian’s serverless app development platform. By extending Atlassian products with custom apps and integrations, participants reimagine how teams plan, track, and deliver work. The Challenge AI can think. But knowing what to do – really knowing – takes context. Atlassian’s Teamwork Graph connects goals, work, people, decisions, and outcomes like associative memory for your organization, giving teams the shared understanding of who’s doing what, what’s already been decided, and what needs to happen next. That's the problem Atlassian is built to solve. And it's the problem we're inviting you to tackle. Build an app on Atlassian’s Forge platform that uses that context to help teams ship with confidence – whether that’s surfacing the right knowledge at the right moment, connecting work across silos, or turning organizational data into a decision that actually moves work forward. Join the live Build Session Tue, Nov 17, 12:00 to 12:45 PM ET on Zoom. Danny Thompson, Senior Developer Advocate at Atlassian, and Adam Moore, Group Product Manager, Forge, show how to build AI workflows with Atlassian Forge and Rovo, followed by live Q&A. Set up Forge first and you can build along. The recording will be on YouTube afterward. Register for the Build Session
