Last year, I won a life-changing amount of money. When I first saw this screen pop up I literally thought that someone had stolen my project AND was impersonating me. I had entered feeling so excited about my idea, but not at all thinking I would win (never mind the $50,000!!). WEB POETRY is still one of my favourite ever projects and I am so, so excited that someone else is going to get to experience the same craziness I did <3 There's $100,000 up for grabs right now in the 2026 Figma Makeathon, running through to the 2nd of March. If you needed a sign to submit something, this is it.

3 tips to win a Contra Challenge from someone who already won 3 🏆

1️⃣ Guidelines are your Bible 🤝🏼 If they ask for a link and a photo, include both. Not just text. Not just a visual without context. Make it easy to say yes.

2️⃣ Only post when your entry is ready. ✅

3️⃣ The entries that won for me weren’t the ones where I tried to “hack” the theme. They were the ones that felt strong, clear, and fun to create. That confidence shows! ⚡️

Don't be afraid to participate if the challenge is about a tool you have 0 experience with, try it, play with it and have fun!

This is your sign to participate, especially the #FigmaMakeathon with the $100k prize pool.

Worst case? You learn a new tool.

Thanks for this
