The APL Forge is an annual competition aimed at promoting the use and development of APL (A Programming Language). Participants are challenged to create innovative open-source libraries and commercial applications using Dyalog APL. The competition offers a reward of £2,500 (GBP) and an expenses-paid trip to present at the next annual Dyalog user meeting. The 2024 round has closed, and the winner will be announced soon, while the 2025 round is currently open for submissions until Monday, 23 June 2025 at 12:00 UTC. Participants can submit their projects, which can include solving problems, developing libraries, applications, and tools in APL. The competition is open to individuals, groups, or companies with a passion for problem-solving in APL. For more details on eligibility, judging criteria, submissions, FAQs, and legal terms, interested individuals can visit the APL Forge website.
