-<h1>Let's code!</h1>
-
-<p>Youth Hacking 4 Freedom, FSFE's coding competition for young 
-Europeans, has just started. The kick-off event took place on the 26th 
-of January with an online meeting for the participants of this year's 
-competition. There they got the most important information about the 
-contest while starting to get to know each other.</p>

-
-<p>Almost 70 young people from all over Europe have signed up for the 
-new edition of Youth Hacking 4 Freedom. During the contest they not 
-only have the chance to work on their own Free Software projects, but 
-also to win great cash prizes.</p>
-
-<p>The kick-off meeting for this project took place on 26th January 
-with an online event where participants had the chance to get their 
-questions answered about the coding requirements and the coding period, 
-which will end on 30th June. It was a fun event which gave everybody 
-the chance to get to know each other a bit better and to meet other 
-participants from all across Europe. However, the FSFE team was also 
-excited to learn about the participants and to find out what they are 
-looking forward to in the upcoming months.</p>
-
-<p>One of this edition's participants, 1337misom*, explains his 
-motivation.</p>
-
-<blockquote>
-<p><em>“I have never really released any of my projects because 
-they mainly solved problems for myself and weren't optimized for ease 
-of use etc. So this will be my first shot at actually creating a 
-program that lasts for more than a few weeks".</em></p> 
-</blockquote> 
-
-<p>The opportunity to work on a project they are really interested in, as well 
-as gaining experience and having fun, is the main reason given by the 
-participants. Jannes*, who has already taken part in the first edition 
-of the contest last year, said that he joined "to have fun, meet 
-exciting people with even more exciting ideas and develop a (hopefully) 
-useful program in a limited time".</p>
-
-<p>Over the coming months, participants will have the opportunity to 
-discuss their projects once a month in an online meeting as well as 
-through the dedicated Youth Hacking 4 Freedom Matrix room, where FSFE's 
-team is also available to answer questions. These channels allow 
-teenagers to share their ideas and questions, receive feedback from 
-their peers, and see what other participants are working on.</p>

-<p>The road to the awards ceremony in Brussels has already begun, and 
-although most of the participants are not yet thinking about this 
-event, they are excited about the opportunity to present a good and 
-practical project and to have their code judged by a panel of experts. 
-And although winning is not their main motivation, of course, “nobody 
-is bitter for a sweet". <strong>Good luck!</strong>
