Announcing the PubNub Ambassador Program

Since the early days of PubNub, we’ve seen a vast number of amazing developer apps and projects of all shapes and sizes built with our technology. One of the delights of Developer Relations is having the opportunity to explore and share them with our community. Whether it’s a realtime, music-driven art display, a Raspberry Pi hackathon project, or an interactive beer tap monitor, we love hearing about and seeing the fun and innovative projects created with PubNub.

PubNub empowers developers to create realtime applications in just a few lines of code, which streamlines development and allows developers of all skill levels to make robust, realtime applications. After seeing the overwhelming support in our developer community, the Developer Relations team wanted to offer an official medium for these passionate developers to showcase their work to our large community of developers.

The PubNub Ambassador Program is an excellent opportunity for developers to grow their professional brand through meetups, events, and their content.
