Try our new Okta Identity Engine developer experience. The developer tools and documentation are in pre-release for alpha testers and hackathon pioneers. This release unlocks a variety of customer identity and access management scenarios you can build into your apps, APIs, and CI/CD pipelines.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to use the new Okta Identity Engine Limited GA release to build a working app (SPA, server-side, or mobile) using the Okta Identity Engine developer platform. Build on your own or in teams of no more than 4 people.
This is your chance to push the platform beyond its boundaries and see what it makes possible for you. We’re excited to get feedback from developers at this early stage in the platform development process.
In addition to giving you room to explore on your own, we’ll also have help and resources easily available if you need them.
Developers who sign up will:
- Be onboarded on an Okta Identity Engine dev org
- Get docs, guides, samples, and SDKs
- Have access to the Okta Dev Forum for support
We look forward to seeing what you build and hearing your feedback.
