I worked at Pitch while living in Berlin from March 2022
until December 2024. I learned Clojure to work there and had the time of
my life programming in Clojure every day.
Here are some hackathon projects that were the most fun:
-
Word Art
I worked quite a bit in the editor at Pitch and particularly in the text editor. In September of 2022, before actually implementing gradient text as a feature, I built this working prototype adding old school Word Art to Pitch presentations. Gotta love that retro typography. -
AI Art templates
For the hackathon in Febrary of 2023, we were challenged with integrating AI at Pitch. I picked Dall-E and created a workflow for starting with a template of AI-generated abstract art. I added this button to the starting presentation options:
which opened a menu of limited parameters we would use to create the art-generating prompt:
and after a quick dancing robot loading screen..
you would be redirected to the editor to start your presentation with unique, beautiful abstract artwork in slide template.
