Umbraco Package Awards 2021

An all-new Awards ceremony brought to you by the Package Team

Written by: The Package Team

Codegarden is virtual this year, but just because we can’t meet in person doesn’t mean we can’t celebrate the efforts of you, our friendly community...

...through the 🆕 Umbraco Package Awards! 🆕

🏆 What Are the Umbraco Package Awards?

Packages have always been an essential part of the Umbraco ecosystem. Now, you have the chance to nominate a package and tell us why it should be recognized with an award.

Have you written a package that’s super user-friendly? Perhaps you’ve made the next best property editor? Or maybe you haven’t written a package at all but want to give someone a huge H5YR (high-five-you-rock, if you’re new to Umbraco) for making your favorite package?

There are various categories for the awards, such as best innovative feature, best UI and best package newcomer.

Already have a package in mind? Let us know!
