## AI overview

Trivago Tech Camp 2018 brought together ten participants from nine countries for an eight-day event in Düsseldorf. The participants worked in teams on real-world software projects involving WebPageTest, InfluxDB, Grafana, Google Docs, Markdown, APIs, and web applications, with guidance from mentors and support from workshops and talks.
