We’ve recently launched a Nexmo competition to win a Kindle Fire for the first one to write a Node.js library for the Nexmo API. And we received 6 in less than 48h!
To win the Kindle the rules were fast & robust implementation. But all the libraries were very good, so it was challenging to select the winner. Instead we shortlisted two that were the fasted and the most robust and we decided to give away two Kindles!
A Kindle Fire for Prabhu Velayutham, who was the fasted of all. And a normal Kindle for Aaron Blakely, who came second. We will also be giving $50 free credits for all the other contributors.
Thanks you all for your contribution. We will be launching soon more competition for other languages. So stay tuned!
Here is the list of all the cool libraries we’ve seen:

[READ THIS FIRST: WE’VE RECEIVED 2 LIBS AND ARE UNDER REVIEW]
Hey folks,
Join the league of developers who are building the “most awesome SMS API in the world” and develop a Nexmo Node.js lib.
The minimun required from the lib is to be able to send SMS but feel free to add any of the other cool developers API such as get balance, search numbers, etc..
To win the Kindle Fire, you just need 1) to be the first and 2) have a robust Node.js implementation of the API and get it approved by our architect team.
See previous interviews with developers who helped for PHP and Python.
Enjoy hacking!
