app /wiki

A competition to create an application using only 5K (5120 bytes) of code and resources.

The Rules

• 5K is the total size of the app as distributed:
  • You may zip/tar etc to decrease the size of the distributed app.
  • Obfuscators etc are allowed and may be needed to help reduce compiled code size.
• Network access is allowed, but all bytes transferred count towards the 5K limit.
• All resources (images etc) count towards the 5K limit.
• You may specify certain (reasonable) installation requirements (e.g. Java/.Net/Firefox/Greasemonkey)
• Browser-based apps must work in at least one major browser - cross-browser compatibility is a bonus not a requirement.
